Hello,
Quick question folks..
We had an existing Puppet module for Elasticsearch (ES) 1.5.2 setups with basic head and kopf plugins. I am trying to add the shield plugin also to it. I am trying to add this Shield plugin to the puppet yaml file to pull from the core puppet module ([https://github.com/elastic/puppet-elasticsearch](https://github.com/elastic/puppet-elasticsearch)).
My question is is there a Shield integration to the Core puppet module and if its there how can I call it from the yaml file..?
Any inputs are appreciated..
Thanks
Vikram Y

We are currently working on this with the core ES module, I don't know what the timeframe is, though it shouldn't be too far off!
