Sean Griffin commented on PUP-6230   Re: Data in modules interpret nil as {} Thanks Henrik. The remaining tests also pass. When hello::ticker_file is defined as undef via: module puppet function: <modules>/hello/functions/data.pp, or environment puppet function: production/functions/data.pp And when hello::ticker_file is defined as nil in the ruby lookup functions module ruby function: <modules>/hello/lib/puppet/functions/hello/data.rb, or environment ruby function: production/lib/puppet/functions/hello/data.rb the "unfixed" version performs correctly, returining the empty string from puppet lookup command and lookup() function: [root@gy89jd7ewxq7p8m production]# puppet lookup hello::ticker_file --- ...
