v3 - Support sensu-go

[ghoneycutt]

What's needed to support sensu-go

• document development procedures for maintaining support for sensu-go and sensu v1.
• document config approach - backend vs local config
• base module to manage files, packages, services, etc.
• documentation with puppet-strings
• README
• extension provider code is cleaned up after listing extensions with sensuctl should support --all-organizations sensu-go#1767 is fixed
• support resource purging - Document and test resource purging #954
• types and providers
  • asset
    • ensure => absent works - Implement delete command for assets in sensuctl sensu-go#988
  • check
  • cluster
  • config
  • entity
  • environment
  • event
  • extension
  • filter
  • handler
  • hook
  • mutator
  • organization
  • role
  • silenced
  • user
    • password support works - sensuctl does not provide a way to get the value of a password for a user sensu-go#1437
  • api_validator
• major platforms
  • EL7
  • Debian 9
  • Ubuntu 16.04
• minor platforms
  • EL 6
  • Debian 7 is removed - Drop support for Debian 7 on 2018-05-31 #904
  • Debian 8
  • Debian 9
  • Ubuntu 16.04
  • Ubuntu 18.04
  • Amazon 2017.3
  • Amazon 2018.3 (travis only not vagrant)
  • Amazon 2

For an item to be checked, it needs the following if applicable.

• spec tests
• acceptance tests (beaker/serverspec)
• Vagrant instance for each platform

@ghoneycutt Where is environment documented? Also may not need to do anything for event, looks like entirely informational and nothing that can be changed with sensuctl.

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt Nevermind about environment, found under RBAC section.

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt Any references for extension? Also do we want to add a type for event? event seems like something sent by checks or on a more ad-hoc basis.

[ghoneycutt]

I think extension is just for v1 of sensu as it is not listed in the v2 docs

[ghoneycutt]

@treydock Event's can be deleted and resolved, so we should have a type/provider for them.

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt Can check off EL6 and Ubuntu 14.04. The tests for Ubuntu 18.04 work in Docker and Vagrant is fixed with #915.

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt For the config type, the only things it can change in sensuctl is default organization, environment and output format. AFAICT our use of sensuctl create -f bypasses default organization and environment so those are defaulted in the individual types.

I do notice that right now if a system in provisioned and the password changed later, sensuctl configure won't get re-run.

[ghoneycutt]

@treydock Added documentation with puppet-strings to the list.

https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/puppet_strings_style.html#resource-types

[treydock]

May need to add extension back, it appears to be something that can be managed with sensuctl.

[ghoneycutt]

Put it back on the list.

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt Issue with el6 in Vagrant appears to be fact box doesn't ship with latest kernel and when the guest addition logic adds kernel-headers it adds the latest available kernel headers and not the ones for kernel running on the box. Logging into the box, updating kernel, and reloading fixes the box.

The issue with Ubuntu 14.04 box is issue with Vagrantfile I've opened PR #934

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt Need a checkbox to add ensure => absent support to sensu_asset. This is opened here: sensu/sensu-go#988

[treydock]

sensu-go appears to be adding cli support to manage backend cluster members. Should probably add checkbox for cluster management.

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt config can be checked off via #938. Need a checkbox to add ensure => absent support to sensu_asset. This is opened here: sensu/sensu-go#988. The provider for sensu_asset supports delete but it causes errors when invoked, the acceptance tests explicitly skip testing the deletion of assets. Only change necessary for sensu_asset is removing the skip here: https://github.com/sensu/sensu-puppet/blob/sensu2/spec/acceptance/sensu_asset_spec.rb#L54

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt Can check off extension provider code is cleaned up via #1013 .

[treydock]

@ghoneycutt User type is done but lacks ensure => absent similar to assets: sensu/sensu-go#2540
