Ben Ford created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6103 puppet epp render should load local facts by default Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: Language Created: 2016/03/28 5:03 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Ben Ford puppet epp render should load local facts by default. It's very common when developing code to run local `puppet apply` evaluations to see what code does. Currently, the fastest way to get a quick render of an erb template is something like: [root@training templates]# puppet apply -e 'notice(template("/full/path/to/example.erb"))' When using EPP templates, you must first save facts to a file [root@training templates]# facter --yaml > facts.yaml [root@training templates]# puppet epp render ec2data.epp --values_file facts.yaml Since this is such a common use case, it would be really nice to just load local facts by default if none were provided. Maybe even print out a notice like Notice: no values provided, using local facts.
