Puppet Accounts Management

This is puppet module for managing user accounts, groups and setting ssh keys.

in node definition include:

class {'accounts': }

Hiera

Hiera allows flexible account management, if you want to have a group defined on all nodes, just put in global hiera config, e.g. common.yml:

accounts::groups:
 www-data:
   gid: 33

and user accounts:

accounts::users:
 deric:
   comment: "John Doe"
   groups: ["sudo", "users"]
   shell: "/bin/bash"
   pwhash: "$6$GDH43O5m$FaJsdjUta1wXcITgKekNGUIfrqxYogWPVSRoCADGdwFe6H//gzj/VT4lcv55o3z.nrmNb3VbVvgcghz9Ae2Dw0"
   ssh_key:
    type: "ssh-rsa"
    key: "a valid public ssh key string"
    comment: "john@doe"

Which accounts will be installed on specific machine can be checked from command line:

$ hiera -y my_node.yml accounts::users --hash

where my_node.yml is a file which you get from facter running at some node:

$ facter -y > my_node.yml
