This module manages the snapd package and service. snapd is a tool that enables the installation of snap packages on a Linux system.

See the official website for more detailed information.

This module currently manages the following items:

• The snapd package.
• The snapd service.

To use this module simply include it:

class { 'snapd': }

or

include ::snapd

Install packages using the package provider

package { ['phpstorm', 'atom']:
  ensure   => latest,
  provider => snap,
}

package { 'spotify':
  ensure   => purged,
  provider => snap,
}

If your OS is not listed in Limitations it may still work regardless.

Debian Sid for example should work without any changes.

This is the main class. Currently it has no configurable items.

Supported Operating Systems:

• Arch Linux
• Ubuntu 16.04 & 16.10

Supported Puppet Versions:

• Puppet Enterprise >= 2015.2
• Puppet Open Source >= 4.0.0

We provide a basic package provider which allows installs and removes, we will need to add latest,query and update support in the future.

To contribute to the development of this module please raise a pull request.

Particular help is currently highly desired particularly on the following items:

• Package provider query,latest and update functionality
• Support for more Operating Systems.
• More testing.
