A Puppet module for managing Python

python

A Puppet module for managing Python and installing Python modules.

This module allows easy cross-platform installation of Python and Python modules while keeping the amount of parameters to the minimum. Generally each class is just included without any parameters. This allows including the same class on the same node several times without having to resort to tricks like virtual resources. This also helps keep the class structure extremely simple and understandable.

In short, the approach taken here is, by design, completely different from that used by stankevich/python, where the list of modules to enable is defined by parameters of the main class.

Module usage

To install Python:

include ::python

To include Python modules using the default settings:

include ::python::apt
