Support puppet:/// urls or edit readme?

[7yl4r]

What are you seeing

The readme provides an example using a "puppet:/// style url which is not currently supported."

What behaviour did you expect instead

Why is this included if it is not supported? Is it planned for implementation soon?

Any additional information you'd like to impart

I think I may just be confused here, but perhaps a quick change to the readme would be helpful. Is #77 an implementation of this functionality but the readme was overlooked?

[7yl4r]

After working with this a bit I've found that the readme is describing a workaround. Although this is clear to me now, my initial confusion may indicate that the readme should clarify this point a bit.

Additionally: is there an open feature request for supporting puppet:// urls without the workaround?

See #270

@7yl4r Sorry for the brevity earlier (I didn't realise my train was pulling into the station!).

Being able to use puppet:/// URLs is a feature we're hoping to merge 'real soon now'.

[7yl4r]

I figured there must be something ongoing somewhere, but couldn't find it this morning. Thanks!

I think this one can be closed, since #270 has been merged and provides just this.

[igalic]

do we have a version with this feature released yet?

[alexjfisher]

@igalic Not yet, but I think we should go ahead with a release now.

[hajee]

So what are the steps and the timeline you have in mind? Can I assist somehow?

[igalic]

yes @hajee ! https://voxpupuli.org/docs/#releasing-a-new-version-of-a-module please! help…

[alexjfisher]

@hajee I made a start by doing a modulesync, but then ran out of time before going on holiday.
You could create a release PR but normally the changelog will need improving by updating various issues and PRs with the correct labels etc. Do you want to open the release PR anyway to see how we're looking? I've only got my phone with me, so can't be much more help until I return home on Friday.

[hajee]

I'll see what I can do.

Closed since v2.0.0 is released with puppet:///
