ldconfig

Description

A simple module to manage ld.conf.d entries on Unix systems. This has been tested on RHEL.

Usage Example

This module contains a defined resource type called ldconfig::entry which will generate a file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d and run the ldconfig command when something in that content changes. The main ldconfig base class also can read in entries from Hiera and generate entries.

In Puppet DSL

  ldconfig::entry { 'mariadb':
    paths => [ '/usr/lib64/mysql' ]
  }

In Hiera

Hiera can be populated with the ldconfig::entries hash to automatically generate entries from data

ldconfig::entries:
  mariadb:
    paths:
      - /usr/lib64/mysql
