NAME

       puppet-config - Interact with Puppet's configuration options.

SYNOPSIS

       puppet config action

OPTIONS

       Note  that  any configuration parameter that's valid in the configuration file is also a valid long argument, although it may or may not be
       relevant to the present action. For example, server is a valid configuration parameter, so you can  specify  --server  <servername>  as	an
       argument.

       See the configuration file documentation at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html for the full list of acceptable
       parameters. A commented list of all configuration options can also be generated by running puppet with --genconfig.

       --mode MODE
	      The run mode to use for the current action. Valid modes are user, agent, and master.

       --render-as FORMAT
	      The format in which to render output. The most common formats are json, s (string), yaml, and console, but other options such as dot
	      are sometimes available.

       --verbose
	      Whether to log verbosely.

       --debug
	      Whether to log debug information.

ACTIONS

       print - Examine Puppet's current configuration settings.
	      SYNOPSIS

	      puppet config print (all | setting [setting ...]

	      DESCRIPTION

	      Prints the value of a single configuration option or a list of configuration options.

	      This action is an alternate interface to the information available with puppet <subcommand> --configprint.

	      RETURNS

	      A single value when called with one config setting, and a list of settings and values when called with multiple options or "all."

	      NOTES

	      By  default, this action reads the configuration in agent mode. Use the '--mode' and '--environment' flags to examine other configu-
	      ration domains.

EXAMPLES

       print

       Get puppet's runfile directory:

       $ puppet config print rundir

       Get a list of important directories from the master's config:

       $ puppet config print all --mode master | grep -E "(path|dir)"
