Bug #2680: Template Content in Inherited Class Resource
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2680
Author: Brad Krane
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal

Affected version: 0.24.8
Keywords: template overload
Branch:
Hi, I have discovered an odd behavior of the content generation of the template
function in an inherited class with an overloaded variable. For example:
class webapp {
$dbname = "webapp"
file{ "config.php":
content => template("webapp/config.php.erb")
}
}
class dev-webapp inherits webapp {
$dbname = "dev-webapp"
File["config.php"] {
content => template("webapp/config.php.erb")
}
}
where config.php.erb contains:
database = <%= dbname %>
I would expect that content of the dev-webapp version of config.php to be
"database = dev-webapp" however it is "database = webapp" as if the value of
$dbname was never changed from the base class. In order to get the output I
would expect I have to declare the child class as follows:
class dev-webapp inherits webapp {
$dbname = "dev-webapp"
$filecontent = template("webapp/config.php.erb")
File["config.php"] {
content => $filecontent
}
}
To me it seems that the two different versions of the dev-webapp class should
yield the same output for the content.
