-What is it?
-===========
-
-A Puppet module that can construct files from fragments.
-
-Please see the comments in the various .pp files for details
-as well as posts on my blog at http://www.devco.net/
-
-Released under the Apache 2.0 licence
-
-Usage:
-------
-
-If you wanted a /etc/motd file that listed all the major modules
-on the machine. And that would be maintained automatically even
-if you just remove the include lines for other modules you could
-use code like below, a sample /etc/motd would be:
-
-<pre>
-Puppet modules on this server:
-
- -- Apache
- -- MySQL
-</pre>
-
-Local sysadmins can also append to the file by just editing /etc/motd.local
-their changes will be incorporated into the puppet managed motd.
-
-<pre>
-# class to setup basic motd, include on all nodes
-class motd {
- include concat::setup
- $motd = "/etc/motd"
-
- concat{$motd,
- owner => root,
- group => root,
- mode => 644
- }
-
- concat::fragment{"motd_header":
- target => $motd,
- content => "\nPuppet modules on this server:\n\n",
- order => 01,
- }
-
- # local users on the machine can append to motd by just creating
- # /etc/motd.local
- concat::fragment{"motd_local":
- target => $motd,
- ensure => "/etc/motd.local",
- order => 15
- }
-}
-
-# used by other modules to register themselves in the motd
-define motd::register($content="", $order=10) {
- if $content == "" {
- $body = $name
- } else {
- $body = $content
- }
-
- concat::fragment{"motd_fragment_$name":
- target => "/etc/motd",
- content => " -- $body\n"
- }
-}
-
-# a sample apache module
-class apache {
- include apache::install, apache::config, apache::service
-
- motd::register{"Apache": }
-}
-</pre>

-Known Issues:
--------------
-* In 0.24.8 you will see inintended notifies, if you build a file
- in a run, the next run will also see it as changed. This is due
- to how 0.24.8 does the purging of unhandled files, this is improved
- in 0.25.x and we cannot work around it in our code.
-
-Contributors:
--------------
-**Paul Elliot**
-
- * Provided 0.24.8 support, shell warnings and empty file creation support.
-
-**Chad Netzer**
-
- * Various patches to improve safety of file operations
- * Symlink support
-
-**David Schmitt**
-
- * Patch to remove hard coded paths relying on OS path
- * Patch to use file{} to copy the resulting file to the final destination. This means Puppet client will show diffs and that hopefully we can change file ownerships now
