New Module / Gem Releases

The following modules were released this week:

The following gems were released this week:

Puppet.Dsc Stable Release!

This week we pushed our Puppet.Dsc PowerShell module to the PowerShell Gallery at version 1.0.0! This represents more than a year of work bringing us confidence and stability in the auto-generated modules which Puppetize PowerShell DSC Resources. That done, not much actually changed in this release - a ton of added testing and validation, but the features were already very solid. As always we’ll continue to take bug reports and address them but our attention turns now to the long-promised automation; We’re working through the auto-publishing of PowerShell modules with DSC Resources to the Puppet Forge! Very soon, there will be less than a 24 delay between when a new module (or new version of an existing module) with DSC Resources lands on the PowerShell Gallery and when it arrives, Puppetized, on the Forge!

`rpsec-puppet`, `puppet-lint` moved to `puppetlabs` namespace

We have moved puppet-lint, rspec-puppet to the namespace and released puppet-lint 2.5.0 and rspec-puppet 2.10.0. This will help facilitate more frequent releases of these gems in the future.

Dropsonde update

The IAC team have completed all development tasks on both the Dropsonde module and Gem. Next, the team will be working on getting both module and gem package up as part of Puppet server.
