PDK 3.0.0

PDK 3.0 is a backwards incompatible release.

New features and enhancements

  • Ruby 3.2.2 is now the default version of Ruby.

  • Puppet 8 is now the default version of Puppet.

  • PDK no longer relies on PowerShell, you are able to use PDK from any terminal that honours your PATH variable.

  • As of this release, PDK now only includes the latest Puppet versions available at the time of build. This siginficantly reduces the package size and improves performance.

  • The bundle command is no longer experimental.

  • PDK now properly respects the verbose option when utilizing format options for unit testing.

  • PDK now supports the operatingsystem_support parameter from answers.json.

  • The deprecated config command has now been removed.

  • The experimental console command has been removed from this release.
