Overview

This ONLY install Artifactory Pro.

If you are looking for the commercial installation look at:

Artifactory OSS: https://forge.puppet.com/fervid/artifactory

Artifactory HA: https://forge.puppet.com/fervid/artifactory_ha

Github and gitlab are great for storing source control, but bad at storing installers and compiled packages.

This is where Artifactory comes in. It stores all of your organizations artifacts in an organized and secure manner.

Module Description

The Artifactory Pro module installs, configures, and manages the Artifactory pro binary repository.

The Artifactory Pro module manages both the installation and database configuration of Artifactory Pro.

Setup

Beginning with artifactory

Artifactory pro requires at a minimum a license key

class { '::artifactory_pro':
  license_key                    => 'abc123',
}

If you need to add database connectivity instantiate with the required parameters:

class { '::artifactory_pro':
  license_key                    => 'abc123',
  jdbc_driver_url                => 'puppet://modules/my_module/mysql.jar',
  db_type                        => 'oracle',
  db_url                         => 'jdbc:oracle:thin:@somedomain.com:1521:arti001',
  db_username                    => 'my_username',
  db_password                    => 'efw23gn2j3',
  binary_provider_type           => 'filesystem',
  pool_max_active                => 100,
  pool_max_idle                  => 10,
  binary_provider_cache_maxSize  => $binary_provider_cache_maxSize,
  binary_provider_filesystem_dir => '/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory/data/filestore',
  binary_provider_cache_dir      => '/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory/',
}

Usage

All interaction for the server is done via ::artifactory_pro.

Parameters

artifactory

license_key

Sets the name of the Artifactory license key'.

This is required.

yum_name

Sets the name of the yum repository. Defaults to 'bintray-jfrog-artifactory-pro-rpms'.

This can be changed if Artifactory needs to be setup from a different repository. Typically this is done if an organization has a 'trusted' yum repo.

yum_baseurl

Sets the base url of the yum repository to name. Defaults to 'http://jfrog.bintray.com/artifactory-pro-rpms'.

This can be changed if Artifactory needs to be setup from a different repository. Typically this is done if an organization has a 'trusted' yum repo.

package_name

Sets the package name to install. Defaults to 'jfrog-artifactory-pro'.

This can be changed if Artifactory needs to install a differently named package. Possibly needed if na organization creates their own Artifactory package.

manage_java

Tells the module whether or not to manage the java class. This defaults to true. Usually this is what you want.

If your organization actively manages the java installs across your environment set this to false.

jdbc_driver_url

Sets the location for the jdbc driver. Uses the wget module to retrieve the driver.

This is required if using a new data source.

db_type

Only required for database configuration. The type of database to configure for. Valid values are 'mssql', 'mysql', 'oracle', 'postgresql'.

db_url

Only required for database configuration. The url of the database.

db_username

Only required for database configuration. The username for the database account.

db_password

Only required for database configuration. The password for the database account.

binary_provider_type

Optional setting for the binary storage provider. The type of database to configure for. Valid values are 'filesystem', 'fullDb', 'cachedFS', 'S3'. Defaults to 'filesystem'.

filesystem (default)

This means that metadata is stored in the database, but binaries are stored in the file system. The default location is under $ARTIFACTORY_HOME/data/filestore however this can be modified.

fullDb

All the metadata and the binaries are stored as BLOBs in the database.

cachedFS

Works the same way as filesystem but also has a binary LRU (Least Recently Used) cache for upload/download requests. Improves performance of instances with high IOPS (I/O Operations) or slow NFS access.

S3

This is the setting used for S3 Object Storage.

pool_max_active

Optional setting for the maximum number of pooled database connections. Defaults to 100.

pool_max_idle

Optional setting for the maximum number of pooled idle database connections Defaults to 10.

binary_provider_cache_maxSize

Optional setting for the maximum cache size. This value specifies the maximum cache size (in bytes) to allocate on the system for caching BLOBs.

binary_provider_filesystem_dir

Optional setting for the artifactory filestore location. The binary.provider.type is set to filesystem this value specifies the location of the binaries. Defaults to '$ARTIFACTORY_HOME/data/filestore'.

binary_provider_cache_dir

Optional setting for the location of the cache. This should be set to your $ARTIFACTORY_HOME directory directly (not on the NFS).

artifactory::plugin

url

The url to the location of the groovy file.
