puppet-windowsfeature

Library that uses ServerManager api that comes with Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2012 to add / remove windows features

Usage

This module is only available to Windows Server 2008 and above due to using the ServerManager module that ships with PowerShell. To use the module, use git clone to a directory in your modules folder on your puppetmaster. Then create a module manifest for the site you wish to maintain configuration for. Then you need to include this new module manifest in your nodes.pp file as follows:

class my_windows_features {
 windowsfeature { 'Web-Asp-Net': }
 windowsfeature { 'Web-Net-Ext': }
 windowsfeature { 'Web-ISAPI-Ext': }
 windowsfeature { 'Web-ISAPI-Filter': }
 windowsfeature { 'Web-Mgmt-Tools': }
 windowsfeature { 'Web-Mgmt-Console': }
 windowsfeature { 'telnet':
 	ensure => absent,
 }
}

class my_other_windows_feature_implementation {
    windowsfeature{'IIS':
      feature_name => ['Web-Server',
        'Web-WebServer',
        'Web-Asp-Net45',
        'Web-ISAPI-Ext',
        'Web-ISAPI-Filter',
        'NET-Framework-45-ASPNET',
        'WAS-NET-Environment',
        'Web-Http-Redirect',
        'Web-Filtering',
        'Web-Mgmt-Console',
        'Web-Mgmt-Tools'],
    }
}

Then each place you want to use a module to manage windows features, then you just include it in your nodes.pp as follows:

node 'mywebserver' {
	include 'my_windows_features'
}
