puppet-omeka's Issues

Needs to run a default virtualhost as well

Currently requires a hostname, then uses apache named virtual host -- need to allow this to run as default virtualhost for simple testing

External solr cluster

Needs to be able to point to an external solr cluster and not install solr locally.

External Database cluster

Instead of setting up a local mysql server, should be able to point to an external mysql/mariadb server/cluster.

metadata json needs fixing, breaks puppet parser if running 2.7?

Looks like a JSON issue

Needs SSL

Template variables need to be specified with @

Prep for newer releases of puppet.

selinux

Selinux is disabled for simplicity. If system has selinux, how can we make it work? It will need to enable the httpd ability to connect to network and things like that.
