Find / modify / write / otherwise implement a Puppet module for a Logstash Shipper (likely Beaver, though Lumberjack might be interesting as well).

We are using a lumberjack puppet module for now. It came with serveral issues, but those have been patched. These include:

* No "/etc/lumberjack" for the cert path it sets.
* It incorrectly referenced "@instance" instead of "@name" in the lumberjack template.

Hi Eric,

As a matter of course, any changes from upstream need to be documented (at a minimum), and preferably mirrored somewhere externally, such as Github (either the entire module or a diff, in the latter case a Gist is good enough).

Please update the UPSTREAM file with your modifications.  There are numerous examples :

$ for i in `find modules/ -name 'UPSTREAM'`
do
echo "---"; echo $i; cat $i
done

Indeed. I'll submit a pull request. Until then I can update the upstream with the hash from my latest commit on my fork of master.

It's been an interesting year, but the Bunker project has been officially cancelled - closing this bug.
