##Overview

The fcrepo module installs, configures, and manages Fedora 4 in a clustered environment.

##Module Description

The fcrepo module manages running Fedora 4 repositories in a clustered environment. The module ensures that the prerequisite software is installed, installs the Fedora WAR file and sets up the FCREPO_HOME directory, and manages the configuration files for every Fedora instance on each node in the cluster.

##Prerequisites

To use this module, you need Puppet installed (of course), as well as the following Puppet modules:

• puppetlabs/stdlib
• 7terminals/java
• 7terminals/maven
• 7terminals/tomcat

You'll also need to download the following binary distribution packages:

• Java 7: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
• Maven 3: http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi
• Tomcat 7: http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi

Choose the correct tar-gzipped package for your platform. Only .tar.gz packages are supported at this time.

And you'll need fcrepo.war, built from maven or retrieved from some location.

###Install and configure a base installation of Puppet

Puppet Labs has good step-by-step documentation for getting a Puppet master and Puppet clients set up.

Install: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/installation.html

Setup: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/setting_up.html

Make sure your agents can contact the master puppet server and receive their catalog information:

sudo puppet agent --test

###Common Puppet Setup Issues

• Make sure hosts are all time synch'ed via NTP
• Use lowercase hostnames, including DNS entries
• Only install the version of Ruby that is required by the puppetmaster package (Ubuntu)
• If your host uses a web proxy, include that directive in puppet.conf and also set environment variables. Both are required for module installation.

http_proxy_host=myproxy.example.com
http_proxy_port=3128

$ export https_proxy=http://myproxy.example.com:3128
$ export http_proxy=http://myproxy.example.com:3128

###Install the extra Puppet modules on your puppet master

sudo puppet module install puppetlabs/stdlib
sudo puppet module install 7terminals/java
sudo puppet module install 7terminals/maven
sudo puppet module install 7terminals/tomcat

##Setup

###What fcrepo affects

• Fedora service user and group
• Java, Tomcat, Maven standalone installs
• Fedora WAR
• Fedora directories (home and data)
• Fedora configuration files
• Tomcat service

This module creates a user and group to manage the Fedora service and files, creates a software directory and a data directory and assigns ownership of them to the fedora user, then installs standalone versions of Oracle Java HotSpot JDK, Tomcat, and Maven. The module installs Fedora in a sandboxed environment, with infrastructure software downloaded and installed from binary distributions, and should work on any Unix environment.

It also deploys the Fedora WAR and Fedora configuration files, and manages the Fedora Tomcat service.

###Beginning with fcrepo

####Build and install the module

1. Clone this project, change to the puppet-fcrepo directory.

2. Copy the binary distribution files you downloaded (see Prerequisites, above) into the module's files/ directory:

    cp /path/to/source/packages/*.tar.gz files/

3. Copy the Fedora 4 WAR file into the module's files/ directory, with the name fcrepo.war:

    cp /path/to/fcrepo-webapp-<VERSION>.war files/fcrepo.war

4. Build the module:

    puppet module build .

5. Install the module:

    sudo puppet module install pkg/sprater-fcrepo-<version>.tar.gz --ignore-dependencies

where <version> is the current version of the module.

You can always update these files (especially fcrepo.war) later by replacing them in the /etc/puppet/modules/fcrepo/files directory, then running the Puppet agent on each of your nodes.

####Enable the module in Puppet

include 'fcrepo' in the puppet master's site.pp file (located in manifests folder) is enough to get you up and running. If you wish to pass in parameters such as which user and group to create then you can use instead:

class { '::fcrepo':
  user                => 'fcrepo',
  group               => 'fcrepo',
  fcrepo_sandbox_home => '/opt/fcrepo',
  fcrepo_datadir      => '/opt/fcrepo/data',
}

Note: Placing the above include and class outside of specific node definitions, as above, will apply the fcrepo role to every puppet node. Alternately, place them within an appropriate node block.

##Usage

##Reference

###Classes

####Public Classes

• fcrepo: Main class, includes all other classes

####Private Classes

• fcrepo::install: Creates the user and group, ensures that the correct directories exist, and installs the base software and the Fedora WAR.
• fcrepo::config: Manages the configuration files.
• fcrepo::service: Manages the Tomcat service.

###Parameters

The following parameters are available in the fcrepo module. They are grouped into Environment, Infrastructure, and Fedora.

The defaults are defined in fcrepo::params, and may be changed there, or overridden in the Puppet files that include the fcrepo class.

####Environment

#####user

The Unix user that will own the Fedora directories, software, and data.

Default: fcrepo

#####group

The Unix group that will own the Fedora directories, software, and data.

Default: fcrepo

#####user_profile

The absolute path to the shell profile file that should be modified to update the PATH environment variable. Can be set to a system-wide profile (i.e. /etc/profile).

Default is /home/user/.bashrc

####Infrastructure

Software packages by default are installed in the Fedora 4 sandbox directory, owned by the Fedora Unix user and group. The user's PATH is modified to point first to these tools in the sandbox, and other environment variables may be set in the user's profile file.

#####java_source

The exact name of the Java binary distribution package, in *.tar.gz format. This file should be installed under the module's files/ directory (usually /etc/puppet/modules/fcrepo/files/).

Default: jdk-7u51-linux-x64.tar.gz

#####maven_source

The exact name of the Maven binary distribution package, in *.tar.gz format. This file should be installed under the module's files/ directory (usually /etc/puppet/modules/fcrepo/files/).

Default: apache-maven-3.1.1-bin.tar.gz

#####maven_deploydir

The Maven base directory.

Default: fcrepo sandbox home/maven3

#####tomcat_source

The exact name of the Tomcat binary distribution package, in *.tar.gz format. This file should be installed under the module's files/ directory (usually /etc/puppet/modules/fcrepo/files/).

Default: apache-tomcat-7.0.50.tar.gz

#####tomcat_deploydir

The Tomcat base directory (CATALINA_HOME).

Default: fcrepo sandbox home/tomcat7

Fedora

#####fcrepo_sandbox_home

The home directory for the Fedora environment sandbox.

Default: /fedora

#####fcrepo_datadir

The Fedora data directory.

Default: /data

#####fcrepo_configdir

The Fedora configuration directory.

Default: /fedora/config

##Limitations

This module does not define the raw filesystem devices, nor mount any filesystems. Make sure the filesystem(s) in which the sandbox and data directories will reside are created and mounted.

This module does not set a password for the Fedora Unix user. You'll need to do that yourself.

The java::setup, and maven::setup resources only support the $::osfamily parameters of RedHat, Debian, and Suse.
You may need to override the $::osfamily parameter, setting it to one of those supported OSes, to get these tools to install under puppet.

##Development

See the DEVELOPERS file for more information on modifying, testing, and building this module.
