noodle

Clean-room implementation of the Puppet External Node Classifier and server database that we use at work.

Future dreamland

Duplicate existing functionality
Magicaly templated Heira backend
Relationships, including enough to define network config for an entire stack (from IPs to firewall and load balancer, etc)

Running it

Step-by-step:

git clone
cd noodle
bundle install
Run tests: rake
Start app: rackup

Perhaps the travis-ci.org steps are helpful and/or a decent alternative :)

curl -s -XGET http://localhost:9292/nodes/jojo.example.com
