+# == Define: elasticsearch::script
+#
+#  This define allows you to insert, update or delete scripts that are used within Elasticsearch
+#
+# === Parameters
+#
+# [*ensure*]
+#   String. Controls if the managed resources shall be <tt>present</tt> or
+#   <tt>absent</tt>. If set to <tt>absent</tt>:
+#   * The managed software packages are being uninstalled.
+#   * Any traces of the packages will be purged as good as possible. This may
+#     include existing configuration files. The exact behavior is provider
+#     dependent. Q.v.:
+#     * Puppet type reference: {package, "purgeable"}[http://j.mp/xbxmNP]
+#     * {Puppet's package provider source code}[http://j.mp/wtVCaL]
+#   * System modifications (if any) will be reverted as good as possible
+#     (e.g. removal of created users, services, changed log settings, ...).
+#   * This is thus destructive and should be used with care.
+#   Defaults to <tt>present</tt>.
+#
+# [*source*]
+#   Puppet source of the script
+#   Value type is string
+#   Default value: undef
+#   This variable is mandatory
+#
+# === Authors
+#
+# * Richard Pijnenburg <mailto:richard.pijnenburg@elasticsearch.com>
