Common Patterns
===============

This guide provides common patterns seen in the r10k community. These patterns
are, of course, simply a guide. Understand why you are or are not using a
specific pattern before implementing it.

Repository Setup
----------------

Use a [Control Repo](http://www.jeffmalnick.com/blog/2014/05/16/r10k-control-repos/)
to store your `Puppetfile`.

Hiera data should be in the Control repo OR as a separate source in
`r10k.yaml`. Any `hiera.yaml` in the Control repo will be ignored on a per
environment basis, locating it at `/etc/puppet/hiera.yaml` is prefered.

Each puppet module should be contained in its own independent forge module or
repository.

Editing modules
---------------

All environment content is checked out into `$environmentpath/modules` on the
node r10k is run on, either your puppet master or each masterless node. Edits
made directly to these files will be lost on the next deploy. It is best
practice not to edit code on the production system in the production paths.

You may clone upstream repositories in a regular user's directory, on the master
or on another machine. Create a new feature branch locally, make all required
edits, and push the new branch upstream when ready for testing. R10k will
deploy changes from the upstream repositories, eliminating the need for manual
updates of the `$environmentpath` contents.

Automated deploys
-----------------

To reduce manual intervention, use a post-receive hook on your control and
module repos to initiate an r10k deploy. You can develop your own or use a
publicly available hook. These include:

* [Reaktor](https://github.com/pzim/reaktor)
* [zack/r10k's Webhooks](https://forge.puppetlabs.com/zack/r10k#webhook-support)
(Puppet Enterprise only)
