.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
This command provides simple facilities for converting current system
state into Puppet code, along with some ability to use Puppet to affect
the current state.
.sp
By default, you must at least provide a type to list, which case puppet
resource will tell you everything it knows about all instances of that
type. You can optionally specify an instance name, and puppet resource
will only describe that single instance.
.sp
You can also add +\-\-edit+ as an argument, and puppet resource will write
its output to a file, open that file in an editor, and then apply the
file as a Puppet transaction. You can easily use this to use Puppet to
make simple changes to a system.
.SH OPTIONS
.sp
Note that any configuration parameter that\(aqs valid in the configuration
file is also a valid long argument. For example, \(aqssldir\(aq is a valid
configuration parameter, so you can specify \(aq\-\-ssldir <directory>\(aq as an
argument.
.sp
See the configuration file documentation at
\fI\%http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/configuration.html\fP for the
full list of acceptable parameters. A commented list of all
configuration options can also be generated by running puppet with
\(aq\-\-genconfig\(aq.
.sp
debug: Enable full debugging.
