• Disable rabbitmq service.

    class { "rabbitmq":
      disable => true
    }

    class { "rabbitmq":
      disableboot => true
    }

    class { "rabbitmq":
      absent => true
    }

    class { "rabbitmq":
      audit_only => true

== USAGE - Overrides and Customizations

    class { "rabbitmq":
      source => [ "puppet:///modules/lab42/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf-${hostname}" , "puppet:///modules/lab42/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf" ], 
    }
  

• Use custom source directory for the whole configuration dir

    class { "rabbitmq":
      source_dir       => "puppet:///modules/lab42/rabbitmq/conf/",
      source_dir_purge => false, # Set to true to purge any existing file not present in $source_dir

    class { "rabbitmq":
      template => "example42/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf.erb",      
    }
  

• Define custom options that can be used in a custom template without the need to add parameters to the rabbitmq class

      template => "example42/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.conf.erb",    
      options  => {
        'LogLevel' => 'INFO',
