This plugin adds Puppet External node classification functionality to Foreman.

• Website: theforeman.org
• Support: Foreman support

• Puppet dashboards
• Puppet
  • Environments
  • Classes
  • Config groups
  • Smart Class parameters
• Host / Hostgroup
  • Classes assignment
  • Environment assignment
  • Puppet proxy assignment
• Puppet ENC (external node classifier)
• Smartproxy Puppet status/tab
• Template hostgroup / environment

Some features will remain in core:

• PuppetCA
• Report/Fact parsing

Foreman 3.0 will be the first release where the Puppet functionality is mostly extracted. Therefore, this plugin is only required for 3.0 and onwards. You can install it on Foreman 2.5 to prepare for the Foreman update.

See How_to_Install_a_Plugin for how to install Foreman plugins

You can manually install this plugin using:

# On RedHat/CentOS
yum install tfm-rubygem-foreman_puppet

# On Debian
apt install ruby-foreman-puppet

The usage is identical to the prior core functionality:

• Import environments and classes from a Smartproxy
• Optionally define Smart Class parameters
• Assign environment and classes to Hosts / Hostgroups
• Use the Puppet ENC on your Puppetserver(s) to query Foreman

Please feel free to open a new Github issue if you encounter any bugs/issues using this plugin.
