htpasswd

Puppet module to manage htpasswd and htgroup files.

This module has the ability to manage users with the same username in multiple files. To be able to do this it uses the same approach that the builtin cron type uses with cronjobs: a marker comment before the managed entry. This means that you can not use this module to manage or remove existing entries in htpasswd files. If you need to manage exiting entries you can use https://github.com/benwtr/puppet-htpasswd , but your usernames will have to be unique across all managed htpasswd files on the same host.

This module does not manage the owner/group/mode of the htpasswd and htgroup files you specify. You have to use a separate file resource for that (see here for an explanation).

Compatibility

Puppet v3.x with Ruby v1.8.7, v1.9.3, v2.0.0
