Summary: A gem for making installations based on puppet user friendly executable(s)

Description: 

A gem for making installations based on puppet user friendly executable(s).

A puppet based installer and configurer (not-only) for Foreman and Katello
projects. Kafo is a ruby gem that allows you to create fancy user interfaces for
puppet modules. It's some kind of a nice frontend to a "echo "include
some_modules" | puppet apply"

Suppose you work on software which you want to distribute to a machine in an
infrastructure managed by puppet. You write a puppet module for your app. But
now you also want to be able to distribute your app to a machine outside of your
puppet infrastructure (e.g. install it to your clients) or you want to install
it in order to create a puppet infrastructure itself (e.g. foreman or
foreman-proxy).

With kafo you can reuse your puppet modules for creating an installer. Even
better: After the installation you can easily modify your configuration. All
using the very same puppet modules.

With your installer you can also provide multiple configuration files defining
different installation scenarios.
