#1182: More facts for manufacturer.rb
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
Reporter: dhill | Owner: community
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: client
Version: 0.24.2 | Severity: normal
Keywords: facter, facts, manufacturer | Stage: Unreviewed
Patch: Code | Complexity: Unknown
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
Playing with Facter, I noticed that while it uses dmidecode (where
possible) to get things like the manufacturer and productname, it misses
data like the chassis type (desktop, rack mount etc).
Attached is a rude and crude patch to implement a few more facts in
manufacturer.rb. No test, not sure how to write one yet, or even if one
is needed for this type of change.
The optimum solution is probably a configuration file (ini format, ruby
hash format?) that defines the section and the keys from the section,
rather than a hard code in the .rb file. I may be able to provide this in
a later patch - will start a discussion on the list about that.
