This module is provided as an example to the custom inline_template provider/type.

The purpose of this module is to process erb templates that exist on the local node independent of the puppetmaster.

Requires: A string or hash to pass through to the provider/type

eg. $config_hash = { config_one => ‘config1’, config_two => ‘config2’ }

Sample Usage:

 inline_template { "/etc/config/example.conf":
  ensure  => present,
  source  => "/etc/config/config.erb",
  mode    => 0644,
  configuration => $config_hash,
}
