facter
collect and display facts about the system
Facter is Puppet’s cross-platform system profiling library. It discovers and reports per-node facts, which are collected by the Puppet agent and are made available in Puppet manifests as variables. Facter comes with a number of built-in facts providing information about the operating system, hardware, SSH keys, etc., but is also easily extensible through the following interfaces: * Through custom facts using Facter's Ruby API. * Through `external' facts which can be either executables, or static data files. This package contains the facter binary and the ruby module making facter available to Puppet.
