Puppet module to install and run Hashicorp Vault.
Installs v0.7.0
Linux AMD64 binary from the Hashicorp releases CDN by default.
This module is currently only tested on:
- Ubuntu 14.04.
- CentOS/RedHat 6
- CentOS/RedHat 7
include vault
By default, with no parameters the module will configure vault with some sensible defaults to get you running, the following parameters may be specified to configure Vault. Please see The official documentation for further details of acceptable parameter values.
-
user
: Customise the user vault runs as, will also create the user unlessmanage_user
is false. -
manage_user
: Whether or not the module should create the user. -
group
: Customise the group vault runs as, will also create the user unlessmanage_group
is false. -
manage_group
: Whether or not the module should create the group. -
bin_dir
: Directory the vault executable will be installed in. -
config_dir
: Directory the vault configuration will be kept in. -
purge_config_dir
: Whether theconfig_dir
should be purged before installing the generated config. -
install_method
: Supports the valuesrepo
orarchive
. See Installation parameters. -
service_name
: Customise the name of the system service -
service_provider
: Customise the name of the system service provider; this also controls the init configuration files that are installed. -
service_options
: Extra argument to pass tovault server
, as per:vault server --help
-
num_procs
: Sets the GOMAXPROCS environment variable, to determine how many CPUs Vault can use. The official Vault Terraform install.sh script sets this to the output ofnprocs
, with the comment, "Make sure to use all our CPUs, because Vault can block a scheduler thread". Default: number of CPUs on the system, retrieved from theprocessorcount
fact. -
manage_backend_dir
: When using the file backend, this boolean determines whether or not the path (as specified in the['file']['path']
section of the backend config) is created, and the owner and group set to the vault user. Default: false
When repo
is set the module will attempt to install a package corresponding with the value of package_name
.
package_name
: Name of the package to install, default: vaultpackage_ensure
: Desired state of the package, default: installedbin_dir
: Set to the path where the package will install the Vault binary, this is necessary to correctly manage thedisable_mlock
option.
When archive
the module will attempt to download and extract a zip file from the download_url
, the extracted file will be placed in the bin_dir
folder.
The module will not manage any required packages to un-archive, e.g. unzip
. See puppet-archive
setup documentation for more details.
download_url
: Manual URL to download the vault zip distribution from. You can specify a local file on the server with a fully qualified pathname, or usehttp
,https
,ftp
ors3
based URI's. default:undef
download_url_base
: This is the base URL for the hashicorp releases. If no manualdownload_url
is specified, the module will download from hashicorp. default:https://releases.hashicorp.com/vault/
download_extension
: The extension of the vault download when using hashicorp releases. default:zip
download_dir
: Path to download the zip file to, default:/tmp
manage_download_dir
: Boolean, whether or not to create the download directory, default:false
download_filename
: Filename to (temporarily) save the downloaded zip file, default:vault.zip
version
: The Version of vault to download. default:0.7.0
By default, with no parameters the module will configure vault with some sensible defaults to get you running, the following parameters may be specified to configure Vault. Please see The official documentation for further details of acceptable parameter values.
backend
: A hash containing the Vault backend configuration, default:
{ 'file' => { 'path' => '/var/lib/vault' }}
listener
: A hash containing the listeniner configuration, default:
{
'tcp' => {
'address' => '127.0.0.1:8200',
'tls_disable' => 1,
}
}
-
ha_backend
: An optional hash containing theha_backend
configuration -
telemetry
: An optional hash containing thetelemetry
configuration -
disable_cache
: A boolean to disable or enable the cache (default: undefined) -
disable_mlock
: A boolean to disable or enable mlock See below (default: undefined) -
default_lease_ttl
: A string containing the default lease TTL (default: undefined) -
max_lease_ttl
: A string containing the max lease TTL (default: undefined) -
extra_config
: A hash containing extra configuration, intended for newly released configuration not yet supported by the module. This hash will get merged with other configuration attributes into the JSON config file.
class { '::vault':
backend => {
'file' => {
'path' => '/tmp',
}
},
listener => {
'tcp' => {
'address' => '127.0.0.1:8200',
'tls_disable' => 0,
}
}
}
or alternatively using Hiera:
---
vault::backend:
file:
path: /tmp
vault::listener:
tcp:
address: 127.0.0.1:8200
tls_disable: 0
vault::default_lease_ttl: 720h
By default vault will use the mlock
system call, therefore the executable will need the corresponding capability.
In production, you should only consider setting the disable_mlock
option on Linux systems that only use encrypted swap or do not use swap at all.
The module will use setcap
on the vault binary to enable this.
If you do not wish to use mlock
, set the disable_mlock
attribute to true
class { '::vault':
disable_mlock => true
}
