puppet — The OpenVox CLI

The Swiss Army knife of infrastructure management.

← Back to CLI Reference

The puppet command is the primary CLI for OpenVox. It uses a subcommand structure: puppet <subcommand> [options].

puppet --help

$ puppet --help

Usage: puppet <subcommand> [options] <action> [options]

Available subcommands:

  Common:
    agent             The puppet agent daemon provided by OpenVox
    apply             Apply Puppet manifests locally via OpenVox
    config            Interact with OpenVox's settings.
    help              Display OpenVox help.
    lookup            Interactive Hiera lookup for OpenVox
    module            Creates, installs and searches for modules on the Puppet Forge.
    resource          The OpenVox resource abstraction layer shell


  Specialized:
    catalog           Compile, save, view, and convert catalogs.
    describe          Display help about resource types available to OpenVox
    device            Manage remote network devices via OpenVox
    doc               Generate Puppet references for OpenVox

    node              View and manage node definitions.
    parser            Interact directly with the parser.
    plugin            Interact with the OpenVox plugin system.
    script            Run a puppet manifests as a script without compiling a catalog

OpenVox v8.26.1

Notice the branding: OpenVox 8.26.x identifies itself as "OpenVox" throughout its help output, not "Puppet." The subcommands and behavior are identical — it's the same codebase with community governance.

puppet --version

sudo /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/puppet --version

Real output from our sample infrastructure:

8.26.1

Heads up — known cosmetic bug: The lab is actually running the openvox-agent-8.26.2 package (verify with rpm -q openvox-agent), but puppet --version reports 8.26.1. This is tracked at OpenVoxProject/openvox#415. Only the version string is wrong; the agent itself is at 8.26.2.

See the individual subcommand pages for detailed help, options, and usage examples.
