To get baculaweb up and running configure at least one bacula catalog database with the paramter catalog_db.

See the following example for the different catalog database types:

class { 'baculaweb':
  catalog_db => [
    {
      'label'    => 'EXAMPLE: MySQL backup catalog',
      'host'     => 'localhost',
      'login'    => 'bacula',
      'password' => 'verystrongpassword',
      'db_name'  => 'bacula',
      'db_type'  => 'mysql',
      'db_port'  => 3306,
    },
    {
      'label'    => 'EXAMPLE: PostgreSQL backup catalog',
      'host'     => 'localhost',
      'login'    => 'bacula',
      'password' => 'verystrongpassword',
      'db_name'  => 'bacula',
      'db_type'  => 'mysql',
      'db_port'  => 3306,
    },
    {
      'label'   => 'EXAMPLE: SQLite backup catalog',
      'db_name' => '/path/to/database',
      'db_type' => 'sqlite',
    },
  ]
}

Using Hiera:

baculaweb::catalog_db:
  - label: 'EXAMPLE: MySQL backup catalog'
    host: 'localhost'
    login: 'bacula'
    password: 'verystrongpassword'
    db_name: 'bacula'
    db_type: 'mysql'
    db_port: 3306
  - label: 'EXAMPLE: PostgreSQL backup catalog'
    host: 'localhost'
    login: 'bacula'
    password: 'verystrongpassword'
    db_name: 'bacula'
    db_type: 'pgsql'
    db_port: 5432
  - label: 'EXAMPLE: SQLite backup catalog'
    db_name: '/path/to/database'
    db_type: 'sqlite'

Configure custom installation options

Configure custom directories, ownerships and version:

class { 'baculaweb':
  version           => '8.3.3'
  root_dir          => '/var/www/html/bacula-web',
  extract_base_dir  => '/opt/bacula-web',
  user              => 'apache',
  group             => 'apache'
}

  root_dir: '/var/www/html/bacula-web'
  extract_base_dir: '/opt/bacula-web'
  user: 'apache'
  group: 'apache'
