given a score based on how well
the author has formatted their
code and documentation and
modules are also checked for
malware using VirusTotal.

Please note, the information below
is for guidance only and neither of
these methods should be considered
an endorsement by Puppet.

rcoleman/variance — version 0.0.4 Dec 13th 2011

variance

The variance module introduces arbitrary variance of certain puppet types amongst the nodes it's applied on.

For example: variance::user { 'ryan': } will create the ryan user on your nodes but will vary the users shell based on the fqdn_rand() function.
