Overview

This module is used to configure approx. Approx is a caching proxy for Debian (and derivative) packages requested by apt-get.

For puppet versions < 4.0, use the 1.x.x Versions.

Usage

To start using approx you need to include the approx main class and add the urls you like to make available.

A minimal example might be:

class{'approx'}

approx::repository{'debian':
  url => 'http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian',
}

approx::repository{'debian-security':
  url => 'http://security.debian.org/debian-security',
}

If you like to use hiera, you can define:

---
approx::config:
  debian:
      url: 'http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian'
  debian-security:
      url: 'http://security.debian.org/debian-security'

Systemd

Newer debian systems using systemd use a systemd socket to configure the listening port/ip. To change where approx listen, include the class approx::systemd_socket and set the $listen_streams.
