r10k what it do


we might not be smart

/opt/puppet/bin/r10k deploy environment bind9-internal-whyyy

r10k protects us from ourselves


r10k why we do



simpler puppet development pipeline


puppet enterprise shop


use git branches as puppet environments


r10k why we do two


use Puppet environment flag in /etc/ puppet.conf to
manage app environments

app1fe_dev
app1db_dev

app2fe_dev
app2fe_prod

r10k how we do


clone repos locally
vagrant oscar for local Puppet Enterprise dev

vagrant ssh
/opt/puppet/bin/r10k deploy environment app1_dev

test
modify puppet code
repeat

r10k git


git branches are cheap

environment management is expensive

good communication is key, esp since terminology is reused ad nauseam

environment branch repo class fork deploy role profile

r10k blame git


good communication is key

r10k robots all the way down



abstract app data in hiera

generalized code in separate git repos

protected code in ur-module from hades

environment data per git branch for r10k


too many layers of abstraction

r10k it do it


at its best it can still feel like standalone

at its worst it's like juggling jugglers juggling chainsaws

git merge new_feature env1
git merge new_feature env2
git merge new_feature env3 

r10k problem?

r10k asides
