Puppet module for Altassian JIRA
authored by Bryce Johnson

puppet-jira is a module for Atlassian's Enterprise Issue Tracking and project management tool.

This puppet module heavily uses hiera-puppet to decouple configuration information from the module itself. An example is given in jira.yaml that you can use to construct your own jira hieradata information. Hiera variables are then defined in the module's params.pp.

Tested on Puppet 3.0+ Puppet 2.7+ should work as Hiera is now optional.

The puppetlabs production yum repository can be found at:
http:https://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6/products/x86_64

• Linux: RedHat / Centos 5/6 - tested.
• Linux: Ubuntu 12.04 - tested.

• Postgres
• MySQL (untested)

It is your responsibility to backup your database. Especially do so if you are installing to an existing installation of jira as this module is UNTESTED from with an existing install of jira

You must have your database setup with the account user that the application will use. This information needs to be put in the hiera yaml, for example jira.yaml, in your hieradata directory.

I have my own postgres puppet module that installs pg, creates the JIRA database, and the JIRA database user before the JIRA puppet module runs.

Make sure you have a JAVA_HOME and appropriate java installed on your machine.

Did I mention if you are upgrading, BACKUP your database first? This module makes no warranty on your data, per its license.

This puppet module will automatically download the jira zip from Atlassian and extract it into /opt/jira/atlassian-jira-$version

This module requires: https://github.com/mkrakowitzer/puppet-deploy.git

An example on how to use this module:

class { 'jira':
  version     => '6.0.1',
  installdir  => '/opt/atlassian-jira',
  homedir     => '/opt/atlassian-jira/jira-home',
  user        => 'jira',
  group       => 'jira',
  dbpassword  => 'secret',
  dbserver    => 'localhost',
  javahome    => '/opt/java/jdk1.7.0_21/',
  downloadURL  => 'http:https://myserver/pub/development-tools/atlassian/',
}

If you would prefer to use Hiera then see jira.yaml file for an example.

Please feel free to raise any issues here for fixes. I'm happy to fix them up. Also feel free to make a pull request for anything so I can hopefully get it in.
