NAME

6       puppet-doc - Generate Puppet references
7

SYNOPSIS

9       Generates  a reference for all Puppet types. Largely meant for internal
10       Puppet Inc. use. (Deprecated)
11

USAGE

13       puppet doc [-h|--help] [-l|--list] [-r|--reference reference-name]
14

DESCRIPTION

16       This  deprecated  command  generates  a  Markdown  document  to  stdout
17       describing  all  installed  Puppet  types or all allowable arguments to
18       puppet executables. It is largely meant for internal use and is used to
19       generate the reference document available on the Puppet Inc. web site.
20
21       For  Puppet module documentation (and all other use cases) this command
22       has  been   superseded   by   the   "puppet-strings"   module   -   see
23       https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-strings for more information.
24
25       This  command (puppet-doc) will be removed once the puppetlabs internal
26       documentation  processing  pipeline  is  completely   based   on   pup‐
27       pet-strings.
