Darwin MacOS support

[abuzuluk]

Hello, Can we add to this module ability install perl modules on MacOS?

[faxm0dem]

This would be great!
Unfortunately I don't have access to a MacOS machine. Would you be willing to do a PR with the new functionality?

[abuzuluk]

Yeap, sure! I have couple MacOS Mojave machine, where I can test changes.
Is just a simple adding Darwin as a confine to provider or smth else?

[faxm0dem]

At the very least, add the right values for the new OS to params.pp and config.pp

FWIW I'd like to move OS-specific stuff to module data in the near future

That's nice, however when I was using this module on MacOS it was enough just to add :Darwin in confine in provider.
But perl was already installed.

I am not getting -- is this module installs perl or not?
If yes. so perl installs on MacOS via brew, which require another https://forge.puppet.com/thekevjames/homebrew module dependency.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks!

IIRC it doesn't require the perl package directly, but it will install the cpan package (if manage_package is set to true.

I don't know anything about homebrew, but if you can get it to install cpan for darwin the way you like, it's fine by me :)
