This documentation is for WSO2 Puppet Modules version 2.0.0. View documentation for the latest release.
We have moved WSO2 Puppet Modules to separate product specific repositories, and as a result the puppet-modules repository, which this documentation is based on has been deprecated.
A new puppet-common repository has been introduced. Please find the new repository list here.

    product_name=wso2am
    product_version=1.9.1
    product_profile=default
    vm_type=openstack
  4. Copy the file setup.sh file, which appears as follows, into the /opt/setup.sh file.

    #!/bin/bash
    echo  "#####################################################" 
    echo  " Starting cleanup " 
    echo  "#####################################################" 
    ps aux | grep -i wso2 | awk { 'print $2' } | xargs kill -9
    #rm -rf /mnt/*
    sed -i  '/environment/d'  /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
    echo  "#####################################################" 
    echo  " Setting up environment " 
    echo  "#####################################################" 
    rm -f /etc/facter/facts.d/deployment_pattern.txt
    mkdir -p /etc/facter/facts.d
    
    while read -r line; do declare  $line
          ; done < deployment.conf  
    
    echo product_name=$product_name >> /etc/facter/facts.d/deployment_pattern.txt  
    echo product_version=$product_version >> /etc/facter/facts.d/deployment_pattern.txt  
    echo product_profile=$product_profile >> /etc/facter/facts.d/deployment_pattern.txt  
    echo vm_type=$vm_type >> /etc/facter/facts.d/deployment_pattern.txt  
    
    echo  "#####################################################"   
    echo  " Installing "   
    echo  "#####################################################"   
    
    puppet agent --enable  
    puppet agent -vt  
    puppet agent --disable  
  5. Execute the following command, so that users other than the owner can read and execute the file.

    chmod 755 setup.sh
  6. Run the following command to set the Puppet facters and run the Puppet Agent in order to setup the WSO2 product instance.

    ./setup.sh

    This installs an instance of a standard WSO2 product based on the product and version that you defined.
    For example:

    /mnt/10.0.2.89/wso2am-1.9.1

      For  APIM 1.9.1  the complete deployment time (deployment and server startup) is approximately 1 minute.
