I would like to create an RPM package that applies a Puppet manifest on a server which does not contain Puppet, Facter and Hiera. Also, and more importantly, I should be able to apply it WITHOUT being obliged to install neither of these tools (Puppet, Facter, Hiera) on the production server.
So basically, the package should run the following command without installing any of the required packages:
puppet apply install.pp --modulepath=./modules --hiera_config=./conf/hiera.yaml
How can I proceed to make such a package ? Is it a good idea to extract the 'binary' files the Puppet/Hiera/Facter RPMs to include them in another one ?
Thanks!
Installing the relevant packages and then removing them would be by far the fastest and safest way to do what you wish. Maybe you can convince your customer that the cost in time for any other solution is not worth the money. Anyway, if packages are not an option, let's be innovative:
Those two options might work, but are not innovative enough.
I guess that the summary of this answer is that the value of doing so is negative compared to using what you distribution provides.
