module Puppet::Agent::Disabler

This module is responsible for encapsulating the logic for

"disabling" the puppet agent during a run; in other words,
keeping track of enough state to answer the question
"has the puppet agent been administratively disabled?"

The implementation involves writing a lockfile with JSON

contents, and is considered part of the public Puppet API
because it used by external tools such as mcollective.

For more information, please see docs on the website.
