I've been using puppet at work for over a year now and its pretty simple really - most of the time I spend on puppet configs is debugging various isms ( like, for an ssh authorized keys manipulation, you can't throw an array to user :-< )
Planning to test out my image process soon-ish. Still need to get mcollective working properly - think its about the last module still erroring out on me.
So far, I have:
- ssh configuration
- various package installations
- rasp-config, ruby-shadow, python-pip, ruby-dev
- ruby packages: builder ( for gem installs ), wiringpi
- pip ( python ) package rpi.gpio
- rsync backup, just a simple backup to my fileserver
- /boot/config.txt so I can preserve any modifications I may want
- locales config
- user maint, putting my ssh key in place, forcing pi's password to be maintained/not raspberry
- automate git clone of remote repos
( So I don't have to remember to do those by hand though updates/pull will be manual )
Only down side is that I'll still need a bootstrap script to put a few packages on the box - puppet/facter gems and puppet.conf, then I should just need to run puppet agent and everything should magically appear
I may upload the puppet configs to github but most of the configurations are going to be local
