Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager 3 Puppet module

Install and configure Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager 3.

This module was forked from hubspot/nexus.

Requirements of this module

  • puppet/archive
  • puppet/extlib
  • puppetlabs/stdlib

Migration from pre 3.x versions of this module

With version 3.0.0 we changed the default installation path from /srv to /opt/sonatype.

To migrate your current installation you will have to put something like the following into your role_nexus_server.pp:

  # shutdown the currently running service as we have to modify the operation system user
  exec { 'shutdown-running-service':
    command => '/usr/bin/systemctl stop nexus.service',
    onlyif  => [
      '/usr/bin/test -d /srv/sonatype-work',
      '/usr/bin/test ! -d /opt/sonatype/sonatype-work'
    ],
    before  => [
      Class['nexus::package'],
      Class['nexus::user']
    ],
  }

  # nexus::package will extract the archive which contains an empty work directory
  exec { 'remove-empty-work-directory':
    command => '/usr/bin/rm -rf /opt/sonatype/sonatype-work',
    onlyif  => [
      '/usr/bin/test -d /srv/sonatype-work',
      '/usr/bin/test -d /opt/sonatype/sonatype-work'
    ],
    before  => [
      Exec['move-work-directory-to-new-location']
    ],
    require => [
      Class['nexus::package'],
    ]
  }

  # move the old working directory to the new location
  exec { 'move-work-directory-to-new-location':
    command => '/usr/bin/mv /srv/sonatype-work /opt/sonatype/',
    onlyif  => [
      '/usr/bin/test -d /srv/sonatype-work',
      '/usr/bin/test ! -d /opt/sonatype/sonatype-work'
    ],
    require => [
      Class['nexus::package'],
      Exec['remove-empty-work-directory'],
    ],
    before  => Class['nexus::service'],
  }

Usage

The following is a basic role class for building a nexus host. Adjust accordingly as needed.

NOTE: you must pass version to Class['nexus']. This is needed for the download link and determining the name of the nexus directory.

class role_nexus_server {
  
  # puppetlabs-java
  # NOTE: Nexus requires
  class{ 'java': }
  
  class{ 'nexus':
    version => '3.42.0-01',
  }
  
  Class['java'] ->
  Class['nexus']

}

Valid versions and revisions can be picked from the official page

Nginx proxy

The following is setup for using the puppet/puppet-nginx module. Nexus does not adequately support HTTP and HTTPS simultaneously. Below forces all connections to HTTPS. Be sure to login after the app is up and head to Administration -> Server. Change the base URL to "https" and check "Force Base URL". The application will be available at:

https://${::fqdn}/

  class{ '::nginx': }

  file { '/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf':
    ensure => absent,
    require => Class['::nginx::package'],
    notify => Class['::nginx::service']
  }

  nginx::resource::vhost { 'nexus':
    ensure            => present,
    www_root          => '/usr/share/nginx/html',
    rewrite_to_https  => true,
    ssl               => true,
    ssl_cert          => '/etc/pki/tls/certs/server.crt',
    ssl_key           => '/etc/pki/tls/private/server.key',
  }

  nginx::resource::location { 'nexus':
    ensure    => present,
    location  => '/',
    vhost     => 'nexus',
    proxy     => "http://${nexus::host}:${nexus::port}",
    ssl       => true,
  }

Docker

To use nexus repository for docker you need to read the documentation for some additional config settings. Docker Repository Reverse Proxy Strategies

  nginx::resource::location { 'nexus':
    ensure    => present,
    location  => '/',
    locations => {
      'docker-v2' => {
        location => '/v2/',
        proxy    => "http://${nexus::host}:${nexus::port}/repository/docker-hosted/v2/",
      }
    },
    vhost     => 'nexus',
    proxy     => "http://${nexus::host}:${nexus::port}",
    ssl       => true,
  }

Keep in mind that pushing to docker group repository is a pro feature of nexus repository manager.

TODO

  • Find a way to not require a version to be passed to Class['nexus']
