# Puppet Provisioner
The `puppet` provisioner installs, configures and runs the Puppet agent on a
remote resource. The `puppet` provisioner supports both `ssh` and `winrm` type
[connections](/docs/provisioners/connection.html).
## Requirements
The `puppet` provisioner has some prerequisites for specific connection types:
* For `ssh` type connections, `cURL` must be available on the remote host.
* For `winrm` connections, `PowerShell 2.0` must be available on the remote host.
Without these prerequisites, your provisioning execution will fail.
Additionally, the `puppet` provisioner requires
[Bolt](https://puppet.com/products/bolt) to be installed on your workstation
with the following [modules
installed](https://puppet.com/docs/bolt/latest/bolt_installing_modules.html#install-modules)
* `danieldreier/autosign`
* `puppetlabs/puppet_agent`
## Example usage
```hcl
resource "aws_instance" "web" {
# ...
provisioner "puppet" {
server = aws_instance.puppetmaster.public_dns
server_user = "ubuntu"
extension_requests = {
pp_role = "webserver"
}
}
}
```
## Argument Reference
The following arguments are supported:
* `server (string)` - (Required) The FQDN of the Puppet master that the agent
is to connect to.
* `server_user (string)` - (Optional) The user that Bolt should connect to the
server as (defaults to `root`).
* `os_type (string)` - (Optional) The OS type of the resource. Valid options
are: `linux` and `windows`. If not supplied, the connection type will be used
to determine the OS type (`ssh` will assume `linux` and `winrm` will assume
`windows`).
* `use_sudo (boolean)` - (Optional) If `true`, commands run on the resource
will have their privileges elevated with sudo (defaults to `true` when the OS
type is `linux` and `false` when the OS type is `windows`).
* `autosign (boolean)` - (Optional) Set to `true` if the Puppet master is using
[Daniel Dreier's policy-based autosigning
tool](https://danieldreier.github.io/autosign) (defaults to `true`).
* `open_source (boolean)` - (Optional) If `true` the open source Puppet agent
will be installed on the resource, otherwise the Puppet Enterprise agent will
be installed (defaults to `true`).
* `certname (string)` - (Optional) The Subject CN used when requesting
a certificate from the Puppet master CA (defaults to the FQDN of the
resource).
* `extension_request (map)` - (Optional) A map of [extension
requests](https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/ssl_attributes_extensions.html#concept-932)
to be embedded in the certificate signing request before it is sent to the
Puppet master CA and then transferred to the final certificate when the CSR
is signed.
* `custom_attributes (map)` - (Optional) A map of [custom
attributes](https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/ssl_attributes_extensions.html#concept-5488)
to be embedded in the certificate signing request before it is sent to the
Puppet master CA.
* `environment (string)` - (Optional) The name of the environment which the
Puppet agent will be running in (defaults to `production`).
* `bolt_timeout (string)` - (Optional) The timeout to wait for Bolt tasks to
complete. This should be specified as a string like `30s` or `5m` (defaults
to `5m` - 5 minutes).
