mac_profiles_handler module for Puppet

Description

This module provides two resource types for interacting with OS X configuration profiles.

The profile_manager resource type is the back-end type that interacts with /usr/bin/profiles for creating, destroying and verifying a resource type. The mac_profiles_handler::manage resource type is user-facing and handles the management of the actual files.

A basic fact is also provided to list installed profiles.

Usage

mac_profiles_handler::manage { 'com.puppetlabs.myprofile':  
  ensure  => present,  
  file_source => 'puppet:///modules/mymodule/com.puppetlabs.myprofile.mobileconfig',  
}

You can use an ERB template instead of a mobileconfig:

mac_profiles_handler::manage { 'com.puppetlabs.myprofile':  
  ensure  => present,  
  file_source => template('mymodule/com.puppetlabs.myprofile.erb'),  
  type => 'template',  
}

You must pass the profilers identifier as your namevar, ensure accepts present or absent and file_source behaves the same way source behaves for file.

To-Do

Improve provider parsing.
Handle more types of configuration profiles.
The fact should create a fact for each profile, bonus points for using system_profiler.
Improve documentation when author isn't presenting the next morning.
