Using mariadb in OpenSuSE >= 13.1.

[sharumpe]

I would like to use MariaDB instead of MySQL on OpenSuSE 13.1. Looking at what has been done for other operatingsystem versions in the source (manifests/params.pp), it appears that you have settled on using operatingsystemrelease to determine when to select mariadb packages, so I have done the same for OpenSuSE. Hopefully I have done this is a way that works for your process; I'm kind of new to contributing to other folks' projects.

Ticket: https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/MODULES-1337

@cmurphy thoughts?

[cmurphy]

Does the version need to be so specific? Could we do

if $::operatingsystemmajrelease >= 13 {

?

[cmurphy]

@sharumpe if you rebase against master I believe the 1.8.7 tests will pass.

@igalic Should this also include setting the $provider = 'mariadb' ?

[igalic]

i don't think so, i've moved to removing the mariadb provider, as i think it's simpler to handle it all in one.

@sharumpe we just merged #610 which will cause merge conflicts here, sorry. If you can rebase and address the question about using 13.1 vs 13 we can get this support in. Thanks!

[sharumpe]

Sorry for the delay in responding.

MariaDB became a standard option in OpenSuSE 13.1, the first "13" release,
so I think that would be just fine.

I'll try to rebase it when I get home this evening. I'm still new to the
git stuff, so I will need to look up what that entails.

Thanks!
Tim

@sharumpe let us know if you need any help.

Well, long delay. Sorry. I am really not sure what needs to be done to
re-base, however, it looks like there are very few differences between the
current params.pp file and what I have, specifically in the section that
chooses the packages for OpenSuSE.

If it's not too much trouble, could you tell me what I need to do to rebase
my fork?

If not, I may just start a new fork from the current head and re-apply my
changes. Seems to be the simplest, if not the most "correct", way to go.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge -- most of my work in the past has been on
my own, but I'm trying to learn. :)

Thanks,
Tim

Hi @sharumpe, so to rebase you'll need to do something like

git fetch upstream
git rebase upstream/master

then resolve the conflicts, and

git add <conflicting file>
git rebase --continue
git push -f origin ticket/MODULES-1337-MariaDB_for_OpenSuSE_13.1

Wow time flies. I have re-done this change against a new clone of this module from a few days ago. Should I re-open the previous issue or create a new one?

@sharumpe thanks! It would be great if you could (force) push to here and re-open, so the context is preserved.

[sharumpe]

OK, I've pushed the updated code to that same branch, and it looks like the Travis checks are good.

\o/ thanks @sharumpe!
