       This is a standalone puppet script runner tool; use it to run puppet code without compiling a catalog.

       When provided with a modulepath, via command line or config  file,  puppet  script  can  load  functions,
       types, tasks and plans from modules.

       $ puppet script -l /tmp/manifest.log manifest.pp
       $ puppet script --modulepath=/root/dev/modules -e 'notice("hello world")'

       Note  that any setting that's valid in the configuration file is also a valid long argument. For example,
       'environment' is a valid setting, so you can specify '--environment mytest' as an argument.

       See the configuration file documentation at https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/configuration.html  for
       the  full  list  of  acceptable  parameters.  A  commented  list of all configuration options can also be
       generated by running puppet with '--genconfig'.

       --debug
              Enable full debugging.

       --help Print this help message

       --logdest
              Where to send log messages. Choose between 'syslog' (the POSIX syslog  service),  'eventlog'  (the
              Windows  Event  Log),  'console',  or  the  path  to  a  log file. Defaults to 'console'. Multiple
              destinations can be set using a comma separated list (eg: /path/file1,console,/path/file2)"

              A path ending with '.json' will receive structured output in JSON format. The log  file  will  not
              have  an ending ']' automatically written to it due to the appending nature of logging. It must be
              appended manually to make the content valid JSON.

              A path ending with '.jsonl' will receive structured output in JSON Lines format.

       --noop Use 'noop' mode where Puppet runs in a no-op or dry-run mode.  This  is  useful  for  seeing  what
              changes Puppet will make without actually executing the changes. Applies to tasks only.

       --execute
              Execute a specific piece of Puppet code

       --verbose
              Print extra information.

       Runs a puppet language script without compiling a catalog.
