## Overview
The apt module provides a simple interface for managing Apt source, key, and definitions with Puppet.
The apt module automates obtaining and installing software packages on \*nix systems.
-**Note**: While this module allows the use of short keys, **we urge you NOT to use short keys**, as they pose a serious security issue by opening you up to collision attacks.
+**Note**: While this module allows the use of short keys, **warnings are thrown if a full fingerprint is not used**, as they pose a serious security issue by opening you up to collision attacks.

####apt::unattended_upgrades
+* `legacy_origin`: If set to true, use the old `Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins` variable. If false, use `Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern`. OS-dependent defaults are defined in `apt::params`.
* `origins`: The repositories from which to automatically upgrade included packages.
* `blacklist`: A list of packages to **not** automatically upgrade.
* `update`: How often, in days, to run `apt-get update`.
It is recommended to read the manpage 'apt_preferences(5)'
+####apt::ppa
+
+* `ensure`: Whether we are adding or removing the PPA. Can be 'present' or 'absent'. Defaults to 'present'.
+* `release`: The codename for the operating system you're running. Defaults to `$lsbdistcodename`. Required if lsb-release is not installed.
+* `options`: Options to be passed to the `apt-add-repository` command. OS-dependent defaults are set in `apt::params`.
+* `package_name`: The package that provides the `apt-add-repository` command. OS-dependent defaults are set in `apt::params`.
+* `package_manage`: Whether or not to manage the package providing `apt-add-repository`. Defaults to true.

### Testing
The apt module is mostly a collection of defined resource types, which provide reusable logic for managing Apt. It provides smoke tests for testing functionality on a target system, as well as spec tests for checking a compiled catalog against an expected set of resources.
