We run a couple of automated
scans to help you access a
module's quality. Each module is
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

Configuration

Using percona hashes

To make sure we allow maximal flexibility while using this module, you can now specify my.cnf options using a hash. You can do so in 2 different places:

You can specify the default_configuration parameter on percona::params and/or you can specify the configuration parameter on percona. Why can you use 2 different places?

You can use percona::params to set options globally over your complete infrastructure and all hosts connected to it. You can do so by defining it outside the scope of your node (a defaults.pp or a class that is included on every node, ...). Then, you could overwrite these global options for each server specifically when you define the percona resource.

Not enough possibilities? Store your configuration in hiera and directly use the hash returned by the hiera function and pass it through. This allows you to specify the configuration of your server on pretty much any level you want.

How do these hashes look like? The (nested) hash you pass to percona::params should look like this:


$hash = {
  '5.1'    => {
    'mysqld/option' => '5.1 specific value',
  },
  '5.5'    => {
    'mysqld/option'  => '5.5 specific value',
    'mysqld/option2' => 'only exists in 5.5'
  },
  'global' => {
    'mysqld/global'     => 'global option that works for any percona version',
    'xtrabackup/global' => 'global option in the xtrabackup section'
  },
}

class {'percona::params':
  default_configuration => $hash,
}

For options that get passed to percona using the configuration parameter, you do not need to nest the parameters since you will have picked the percona version to use at this point.


$configuration = {
  'mysqld/option' => 'something',
  'mysqld/option2' => { 'ensure' => 'absent' },
}

class {'percona':
  percona_version => '5.5',
  configuration   => $configuration,
}


For more information on the structures you can use, please see the docs of the percona_hash_merge() function.

An example hiera.yaml file:

(Note: we need to put 5.5 and 5.1 between quotes or puppet they are turned into numbers which does not play well with the module.


percona_config_global:
  "5.5":
    character-set-server: utf8

  "5.1":
    default-character-set: utf8

  global:
    thread_concurrency: %{processorcount}
    default-storage-engine: 'InnoDB'

and in your manifests


class {'percona::params':
  default_configuration => hiera('percona_config_global', undef),
}

include percona

Using percona::conf

Before being able to use percona::conf, you should set the config_include_dir parameter. You can do this in percona::params or when calling percona.

For debian users, the config_include_dir has been defaulted to /etc/mysql/conf.d/


# This will create a file in the config_folder for each entry.
percona::conf {
  'innodb_file_per_table': content => "[mysqld]\ninnodb_file_per_table";
  'query_cache_size':      content => "[mysqld]\nquery_cache_size = 32M";
  'table_open_cache':      content => "[mysqld]\ntable_open_cache = 768";

  'foo':
    ensure  => present,
    content => template ("percona/custom1.cnf.erb");
  'bar':
    ensure  => absent,
    content => template ("percona/custom2.cnf.erb");
}

Databases and permissions.


percona::database { 'dbfoo':
  ensure => present;
}

percona::rights {'userbar on dbfoo':
  priv     => 'select_priv',
  host     => 'localhost',
  database => '*',
  password => 'default',
}

# You can ommit the user, host and database parameter if you use this format:
percona::rights {'user@localhost/dbname':
  priv => 'all'
}

Unit testing

Unit testing is done using rspec-puppet:

bundle install && bundle exec rspec
