Hi,

I will soon create a new branch, where I have moved away from file concat based on erb template. The new module will be based on Puppet Hashes, merge them together and then I'm reusing this template to make a structured and sorted yaml representation out of the hash.

I will keep the same structure in the module, but I'm just not a big fan of file concatenation and erb templating. Hope you will give it a go when it's ready

Hi @poolski ,

Thanks for the module. I've added a pull request to add a couple of configuration attributes

• The first one is to decouple the 'load' and the 'processes' monitoring. In some of my machines, I wanted to have only the fist one.
• The second one is to pass extra configuration to the metricbeat. I'm using this to pass the 'filesystem.ignore_types' (see [1]). I thought it would be better to create a generic parameter than to call it filesystem filter, which would help only for this particular use case.

Could you please take a look at it?

Thanks,
pablo

Greetings,

I am a security researcher, who is looking for security smells in Puppet scripts. I noticed instances of empty passwords. Empty passwords increase the guessability of passwords. The Common Weakness Organization (CWE) identifies use of empty passwords as a security weakness (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/258.html).

I suggest that to follow the strong password guidelines, and manage passwords with hiera.

Any feedback is appreciated.

HI,

We control our apt repos local and don't use the public ones. Could you add a "manage_repo" override so we could skip the public repo?
