A Puppet module for java-service-wrapper

The Java Service Wrapper enables a Java Application to be run as a Windows Service or UNIX Daemon. This module allows one to daemonize her java services with the jsw libraries.

Basic Usage

This example is based on logstash

java_service_wrapper::service{'logstash':
  wrapper_mainclass  => 'WrapperJarApp',
  wrapper_additional => ['-Xms1G', '-Xmx1G'],
  wrapper_library    => ['/usr/local/lib'],
  wrapper_classpath  => ['/usr/local/lib/wrapper.jar', '/usr/local/bin/logstash.jar'],
  wrapper_parameter  => ['/usr/local/bin/logstash.jar', 'agent', '-f', '/etc/logstash/test.conf']
}

If all you want is install the java-service-wrapper libraries, simply add the following to your manifests

include java-service-wrapper

Notes

It is considered that Java will already be installed or will be installed if you decide to install java-service-wrapper.
