From a2105b08e07ef77037ea0a852891993beb21ef70 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Garrett Honeycutt Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2013 15:33:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Use include instead of parameterized class when no params are given. Instead of perpetuating the use of parameterized classes, which we do not want to do in light of Puppet v3 with Hiera integration, this change invites people to use 'include' instead of the parameterized class syntax when no params are present. --- README.md | 31 +++++++++++++++++-------------- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 2ce5340ab6..d07bbb0ece 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -4,12 +4,15 @@ apt [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apt.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apt) ## Description + Provides helpful definitions for dealing with Apt. + ======= + Overview -------- -The APT module provides a simple interface for managing APT source, key, and definitions with Puppet. +The APT module provides a simple interface for managing APT source, key, and definitions with Puppet.
