["Chad Metcalf (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-255?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13045041#comment-13045041 ] 

Chad Metcalf commented on WHIRR-255:
------------------------------------

I might suggest you follow a slightly different model. Take vagrant for example. There are two routes to configure a box with puppet on vagrant:

Standalone, via puppet apply. Set a manifest/modules path and viola masterless install. http://vagrantup.com/docs/provisioners/puppet.html

Server, via puppet agent. Set a puppet server and point the node to it. Standard puppet rules apply. http://vagrantup.com/docs/provisioners/puppet_server.html

If you need the functionality associated with a full puppet master you'll likely want more control over its configuration then you're going to want to encode in a template. thin configs/pluginsync/stored config db/etc. If you don't need that level of functionality, masterless would be easier.
