Before we begin writing our code, we'll want to check the Forge for relevant supported or open source modules. WordPress requires an SQL server and a web host, which we'll provide via Apache HTTPD. Before we begin, we'll want to install the following modules from the Forge:

  • puppetlabs-mysql
  • puppetlabs-apache
  • hunner-wordpress
