The placement::wsgi::apache class takes the api_port parameter to determine the TCP port number, but this name is not commonly used while the port parameter is used in the other modules. This change fixes the parameter name so that we can keep the implementation more consistent. This also fixes minor differences mainly about formatting.

Overview
The placement module is a part of OpenStack, an effort by the OpenStack infrastructure team to provide continuous integration testing and code review for OpenStack and OpenStack community projects not part of the core software. The module its self is used to flexibly configure and manage the placement service for OpenStack.
Module Description
The placement module is a thorough attempt to make Puppet capable of managing the entirety of placement. This includes manifests to provision region specific endpoint and database connections. Types are shipped as part of the placement module to assist in manipulation of configuration files.
Setup
What the placement module affects
- Placement, the placement service for OpenStack.
Installing placement
placement is not currently in Puppet Forge, but is anticipated to be added soon. Once that happens, you'll be able to install placement with:
puppet module install openstack/placement
Beginning with placement
To utilize the placement module's functionality you will need to declare multiple resources.
Implementation
placement
placement is a combination of Puppet manifest and ruby code to delivery configuration and extra functionality through types and providers.
Limitations
- All the placement types use the CLI tools and so need to be ran on the placement node.
Development
Developer documentation for the entire puppet-openstack project.
