===

Puppet module to manage default types through hashes in Hiera with the create_resources() function. This module adds validation and helper functions, such as ensuring directories. Without specifying any hashes, this module will take no action.

To use, simply include ::types and start specifying hashes of types in Hiera as shown below.

You can add any of the supported options for the types in this module. Please see the Puppet Labs Type Reference for more information.

===

Compatibility

This module supports Puppet v3 >= 3.2.0 (with and without the future parser) and Puppet v4 with Ruby versions 1.8.7, 1.9.3, 2.0.0, 2.1.0 and 2.3.1. Please see .travis.yml for the full matrix.

===

Dependencies
