vStone

Original header used now:

### File managed with puppet ###
## Served by:        '<%= scope.lookupvar('::servername') %>'
## Module:           '<%= scope.to_hash['module_name'] %>'
## Template source:  'MODULES<%= template_source.gsub(Regexp.new("^#{Puppet::Node::Environment.current[:modulepath].gsub(':','|')}"),"") %>'

Problem: When using puppet apply with relative modulepath, the information can be wrong or messy.

#NOTE: Make sure to restart the VM after changing these settings.

Hooks

Hooks provide a way to be notified of certain events during the operation of the Razor server; the behavior of a hook is defined by a hook type.

File layout for a hook type

Similar to brokers and tasks, hook types are defined through a .hook directory and files within that directory:

Authentication

Access any profile page by providing the username and API key (generated in the settings -> API) , e.g. https://trackobot.com/profile/history.json?username=cool-ancient-tree-1337&token=fhyf238cv2eh879

JSON

Any profile page can be requested as JSON. Simply add .json at the end of the url (but before the query string which starts with ?), see example above.

Use the browser to see the JSON structure. JSONView is an excellent browser extension which shows JSON in a nice way.
