Method: Puppet::HTTP::Service.create_service

Defined in:
lib/puppet/http/service.rb

.create_service(client, session, name, server = nil, port = nil) ⇒ Puppet::HTTP::Service

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Create a new web service, which contains the URL used to connect to the service. The four services implemented are :ca, :fileserver, :puppet, and :report.

The :ca and :report services handle certs and reports, respectively. The :fileserver service handles puppet file metadata and content requests. And the default service, :puppet, handles nodes, facts, and catalogs.

Parameters:

  • client (Puppet::HTTP::Client) —

    the owner of the session

  • session (Puppet::HTTP::Session) —

    the owner of the service

  • name (Symbol) —

    the type of service to create

  • server (<Type>) (defaults to: nil) —

    optional, the server to connect to

  • port (<Type>) (defaults to: nil) —

    optional, the port to connect to
