App1 Module

This module is meant to deploy a custom PHP web application that is deployed consisting of multiple tarballs for sites and components. A site will require various components and each site could require different versions of a component.

The deployment is managed via a YAML file that follows the following structure:

---
site1:
    version: '12345'
    aws_bucket: 'app1-site1'
    components:
    - comp1: '12345'
    - comp2: '23456'
    - comp3: '34567'

site2:
    version: '12346'
    main: 'www.example.net'
    admin: 'admin.example.net'
    cookie: 'example.net'
    aws_bucket: 'app1-site2'
    components:
    - comp1: '12345'
    - comp2: '23456'
    - comp3: '12345'

In this example case there will need to be 4 components installed as site1 and site2 make use of 2 different versions of comp3 but otherwise use the same version of comp1 and comp2.

Problem

Currently the module functions as expected and deploys the application properly; however, it has on multiple occasions generated execution timeouts on the Puppet master side due to time to render the catalog so there is a need to improve the rendering. I believe that removing the need for several of the generated parser functions can accomplish that if the module can be refactored to handle the YAML deployment file better.
