Simple module to manage credential files in user home directories.

Follow this page to setup your puppet server for data in modules.

Depending on how your setup is, you can now use:

include '::credentials'

from anywhere.

class { '::credentials':
  users => { ... },
}

from profile and roles.

Or add the class 'credentials' to you 'classes' array, if you use

hiera_include('classes')

or

lookup('classes', {merge => unique}).include

Specifying credentials will be done in hiera. An example:

credentials::users:
  rbe:
    vault:
      ensure : 'file'
      path : '.vault-token'
      content : 'xxxxxxxx-1234-abcd-yyyyyyyy'
  user1:
    secret:
      ensure : 'file'
      path : '.secret-content-token'
      content : '12345678-abcd-efgh-09876543'

This will create two files: 1) '/home/rbe/.vault-token' with above content and permission '0440' and 'root:rbe'. 2) '/home/user1/.secret-content-token' with above content and permissions '0440' and 'root:user1'.

##Usage

All interaction with the credentials module can be done through the main credentials class. This means you can simply toggle the options in ::credentials to have full functionality of the module.
