Gzip values aren't passed incorrectly to nginx server

[GosthMan]

Hello
I am trying to enable the gzip compresion on some of my nginx server but the conf isn't written correctly.

---- # host.yaml
nginx::config::http_cfg_append:  
  gzip: on  
  gzip_proxied: any  
  gzip_vary: on  
  gzip_types:  
    - text/css
    - text/plain
    - text/xml
    - text/js
    - text/javascript
    - application/xml
    - application/javascript
    - application/x-javascript
    - application/xml+rss
    - text/javascript
    - application/json
    - text/x-json
    - image/x-icon   
  gzip_comp_level: 5

# nginx.conf
  gzip             true;
  gzip_comp_level  5;
  gzip_proxied     any;
  gzip_types       text/css;
  gzip_types       text/plain;
  gzip_types       text/xml;
  gzip_types       text/js;
  gzip_types       text/javascript;
  gzip_types       application/xml;
  gzip_types       application/javascript;
  gzip_types       application/x-javascript;
  gzip_types       application/xml+rss;
  gzip_types       text/javascript;
  gzip_types       application/json;
  gzip_types       text/x-json;
  gzip_types       image/x-icon;
  gzip_vary        true;

What do i have to do in order that nginx.conf receive the correct values

Thank you

I am using the following hiera array and it is working as expected on the master branch.

nginx::config::gzip_types:
  - 'text/plain'
  - 'text/css'
  - 'application/json'
  - 'application/x-javascript'
  - 'text/xml'
  - 'application/xml'
  - 'application/xml+rss'
  - 'text/javascript'
  - 'application/javascript'

What branch are you working on?

Hello,
The module is set as mod "jfryman/nginx" on Puppetfile so i presume is the master branch too
The types has no issue, are set as expected, the problem is when is setting gzip and gzip_vary.
Those 2 values should be set as on in the config but puppet sets them as true, also it doesn't take in count the already existent value of gzip on it returns duplicated gzip directive
This is my yaml section and from this all work except gzip: on and gzip_vary: on that on the server appear as gzip true and gzip_vary true

nginx::config::client_max_body_size: '32m'
nginx::config::http_cfg_append:
  real_ip_header: 'X-Forwarded-For'
  set_real_ip_from: '0.0.0.0/0'
  gzip: on
  gzip_proxied: any
  gzip_vary: on
  gzip_types: 
    - text/css
    - text/plain
    - text/xml
    - text/js
    - text/javascript
    - text/x-component
    - text/x-json
    - text/x-js
    - text/richtext
    - text/xsd
    - text/xsl
    - application/xml
    - application/javascript
    - application/x-javascript
    - application/xml+rss
    - application/json
    - image/x-icon
    - image/svg+xml
  gzip_comp_level: 5
  log_format:
    - graylog2_format '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" $status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" "$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for" <msec=$msec|connection=$connection|connection_requests=$connection_requests|millis=$request_time>'

r10k will not use the master branch. It will use the versions listed in the Forge, so a release is needed to get the gzip details as the 0.2.7 version doesn't contain the things that are needed.

I had to change my Puppetfile to the following as a workaround:

mod "nginx",
  :git => "[email protected]:jfryman/puppet-nginx.git",
  :ref => 'master'

I have updated the module to use the github but no change in that
Here is what puppet agent -t -noop returns

As you can see it still changes from on to true and that isn't ok
Any other ideas ?

@GosthMan you should be using the existing nginx::config::xxx parameters to configure gzip, there should be no need to use nginx::config::http_cfg_append for that purpose.

The available parameters in nginx::config are:

• gzip
• gzip_buffers
• gzip_comp_level
• gzip_disable
• gzip_min_length
• gzip_http_version
• gzip_proxied
• gzip_types
• gzip_vary

[dhoppe]

I agree with @3flex and close this issue.
