The module is not IcingaDB compatible yet

[MarcusCaepio]

If you have deactivated the IDO backend including the monitoring module and only activated the IcingaDB front- and backend, you cannot activate the puppetdb module due to an unmet dependency on the monitoring module.

Expected Behavior

Module can be used in environments with IcingaDB

Current Behavior

Module cannot be used in IcingaDB environments at the moment

Possible Solution

Make it IcingaDB compatible :)

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Install Icinga with IcingaDB Front and backend only
2. Install Icinga Director
3. Install the Import Source puppetdb
4. Try to activate puppetdb, you see the unmet dependency info

Context

I want to try the puppet importsource in an IcingaDB environment

Your Environment

• Module version (System - About):
  • Director 1.10.2
  • Icingadb 1.0.2
  • puppetdb 1.0.0
• Icinga Web 2 version and modules (System - About): 2.11.4
• Icinga 2 version (icinga2 --version): v2.13.7

Thanks and cheers,
Marcus

A "grep" in the source code does not find any references to the monitoring module, so removing the "Depends:" line in module.info makes the module work again - but of course someone with knowledge of the module should check and fix it.

Hi there 👋

I was wondering if this module is still actively maintained and whether it is compatible with IcingaDB, or if there are any known limitations when using it in that context (beside of the original issue)

Before making any implementation decisions, we’d really appreciate a quick update on the current state and future plans for this module.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi @MarcusCaepio,

Can you please try to enable the module with the cli command: icingacli module enable puppetdb. This will force enable the module.
Please test whether you can then use it with icingadb.

This module does not use icingadb or monitoring specific references, so I think it should be compatible with icingadb.

There will be a minor release to fix this issue, but no further features or releases are planned. If there are further issues, we will fix them.
