Install and setup noVNC along with websockify.

This will will try to setup the non-webserver parts of a noVNC site.

You are expected to setup the actual VNC server yourself.

You are expected to setup the actual webserver yourself.

class { 'novnc': }

The noVNC client takes a parameter vnc_sessions with a format of:

novnc::vnc_servers:
  session_name: server:port
  other_session_name: server:otherport

The novnc::make_webserver_vnc_index parameter will generate a very simple index page at novnc::webserver_vnc_index using the novnc::webserver_novnc_location for the link targets.

You must manage you own firewall settings.

There are too may ways folks may want to setup the webserver, so no attempt is made here to provide hooks for the websockets proxy via httpd or nginx.

If you want to use the SSL wrapper for websockify you are responsible to depoy the cert, key, CA, and set the parameters you need.
