Puppet : Install a .deb

Question

How can I install a .deb file in a puppet custom module?

I want to run this command in a puppet

wget https://repo.percona.com/apt/percona-release_0.1-6.$(lsb_release -sc)_all.deb 
sudo dpkg -i percona-release_0.1-6.$(lsb_release -sc)_all.deb
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install percona-xtradb-cluster-full-57

and this is my current percona.pp

class percona {

    exec{'percona_deb':
      command => "/usr/bin/wget -q https://repo.percona.com/apt/percona-release_0.1-6.$(lsb_release -sc)_all.deb -O /tmp/percona-re$
      creates => "/tmp/percona-release_0.1-6.$(lsb_release -sc)_all.deb",
    }
}

running the script in agent /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet agent --test will download the .deb file

Answer 1

I suggest you using the native resource type package. Then, you can use the provider dpkg and the source you mentioned above to create the solution you are looking for.

For example:

package {'percona':
  provider => dpkg,
  source   => <source_url>,
}

For more resource attributes, you can consult the documentation here.
