Boundary module

This is the boundary module.

To use it:

include boundary

You need need to specify your Organisation ID and API key in the boundary::params class (manifests/params.pp).

To remove a meter change your include to:

include boundary::delete

To specify a stand-alone probe you can use the boundary_meter resource:

boundary_meter { "nameofprobe":
  ensure  => present,
  id      => '1234556789',
  apikey  => 'abcdef123456',
  tags    => [ "production", "web", "cluster" ],
}

Report processor

The module also contains a report processor that can send the results of Puppet runs as Boundary annotations. Reports will only be created for Puppet runs that had changes or failed. To use it:

1. Install puppet-boundary as a module in your Puppet master's module path.

2. Update the boundary_orgid and boundary_apikey variables in the boundary.yaml file with your Boundary connection details.

3. Enable pluginsync and reports on your master and clients in puppet.conf

   [master]
   report = true
   reports = boundary
   pluginsync = true
   [agent]
   report = true
   pluginsync = true
   

4. Run the Puppet client and sync the report as a plugin

The boundary_meter type and provider is heavily based on work by Joe Williams and Ben Black from Boundary.
