<!-- DO NOT EDIT: This document was generated by Puppet Strings -->

## Table of Contents

### Classes

* [`posix_acl::requirements`](#posix_acl--requirements): install the acl package

### Resource types

* [`posix_acl`](#posix_acl): Ensures that a set of ACL permissions are applied to a given file or directory. Example: posix_acl { '/var/www/html': action

## Classes

### <a name="posix_acl--requirements"></a>`posix_acl::requirements`

install the acl package

## Resource types

### <a name="posix_acl"></a>`posix_acl`

Ensures that a set of ACL permissions are applied to a given file
or directory.

Example:

posix_acl { '/var/www/html':
action => exact,
permission => [
'user::rwx',
'group::r-x',
'mask::rwx',
'other::r--',
'default:user::rwx',
'default:user:www-data:r-x',
'default:group::r-x',
'default:mask::rwx',
'default:other::r--',
],
provider => posixacl,
recursive => true,
}

In this example, Puppet will ensure that the user and group
permissions are set recursively on /var/www/html as well as add
default permissions that will apply to new directories and files
created under /var/www/html

Setting an ACL can change a file's mode bits, so if the file is
managed by a File resource, that resource needs to set the mode
bits according to what the calculated mode bits will be, for
example, the File resource for the ACL above should be:

file { '/var/www/html':
mode => 754,
}

#### Properties

The following properties are available in the `posix_acl` type.

##### `permission`

ACL permission(s).

#### Parameters

The following parameters are available in the `posix_acl` type.

* [`action`](#-posix_acl--action)
* [`ignore_missing`](#-posix_acl--ignore_missing)
* [`path`](#-posix_acl--path)
* [`provider`](#-posix_acl--provider)
* [`recursemode`](#-posix_acl--recursemode)
* [`recursive`](#-posix_acl--recursive)

##### <a name="-posix_acl--action"></a>`action`

Valid values: `set`, `unset`, `exact`, `purge`

What do we do with this list of ACLs? Options are set, unset, exact, and purge

Default value: `set`

##### <a name="-posix_acl--ignore_missing"></a>`ignore_missing`

Valid values: `false`, `quiet`, `notify`

What to do if files are missing:
false: fail run,
quiet: quietly do nothing,
notify: do not try to to set ACL, but add notice to run

Default value: `false`

##### <a name="-posix_acl--path"></a>`path`

namevar

The file or directory to which the ACL applies.

##### <a name="-posix_acl--provider"></a>`provider`

The specific backend to use for this `posix_acl` resource. You will seldom need to specify this --- Puppet will usually
discover the appropriate provider for your platform.

##### <a name="-posix_acl--recursemode"></a>`recursemode`

Valid values: `lazy`, `deep`

Should Puppet apply the ACL recursively with the -R option or
apply it to individual files?

lazy means -R option
deep means apply to every file

Default value: `lazy`

##### <a name="-posix_acl--recursive"></a>`recursive`

Valid values: `true`, `false`

Apply ACLs recursively.

Default value: `false`
