Spring Cleanup – or: How the Puppet Forge Algorithm Canceled Us
A module runs stably and does its job. But Puppet Forge’s internal filter only considers the time since the last update. Our #VoxPupuli #puppet-checkmk module disappeared from the results.

So we rolled up our sleeves and gave the module a thorough cleanup. The module is now fully visible again, freshly tested, and ready for use.

Check it out, give it a try, and leave some feedback.

Frühjahrsputz – oder: Wie uns der Puppet-Forge-Algorithmus gecancelt hat

Ein Modul läuft stabil und tut klaglos seinen Dienst. Doch für den internen Filter der Puppet Forge zählt nur die Zeit seit dem letzten Update. Unser #VoxPupuli puppet-checkmk Modul war aus den Suchergebnissen verschwunden.

Also haben wir das Modul einmal durchgeputzt. Es ist ab sofort wieder voll sichtbar, frisch getestet und bereit für den Einsatz.
Reinschauen, ausprobieren, Feedback dalassen.

Did you know that you don't need #Puppet's #PDK to run all the tests in the #VoxPupuli #DevKit? Just let Jig build your module and run `bundle exec rake test`. https://docs.openvoxproject.org/ecosystem/latest/devkit/unit_testing.html

Looking for a #PDK alternative? It's a little known secret that most of its functionality was implemented by #VoxPupuli tooling vendored in under the hood. Everything the PDK did --and more--- can also be done without it. Read more about the #OpenVox #DevKit https://docs.openvoxproject.org/ecosystem/latest/devkit/index.html

Documentation. Some people love it, some hate it. But many people need it. Community is working on the documentation. The new documentation can be found at https://docs.openvoxproject.org and is based on Puppet Version 5.4 as this was the last documentation with free license.

If you encounter any issues, please open an issue at https://github.com/openvoxproject/openvox-docs/issues.

Besides this the community is looking for people to collaborate on good documentation.
