Jira (PUP-7382) Ensure current values are YAML serializable

[Ethan Brown (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Ethan Brown commented on PUP-7382   Re: Ensure current values are YAML serializable Do we want to consider Puppet warnings for users custom types that might cause problems? One place worth investigating is the vmware modules - they all share the source at https://github.com/vmware/vmware-vmware_lib/tree/master/lib/puppet/property which includes a number of custom types (though none are based on the Ruby Hash or Array). These are used by the modules: https://github.com/vmware/vmware-vcenter https://github.com/vmware/vmware-vcd https://github.com/vmware/vmware-nsx There are some other modules that do some interesting things, but I don't believe they are impacted because use of Hash is outside of type and provider code: https://github.com/simp/pupmod-simp-compliance_markup/blob/master/lib/puppetx/simp/compliance_map_ordered_hash.rb https://github.com/ptomulik/puppet-vash https://github.com/ptomulik/puppet-portsutil/blob/master/lib/puppet/util/ptomulik/package/ports/options.rb consumes the Vash mixins above https://github.com/ptomulik/puppet-portsng/blob/master/lib/puppet/provider/package/portsng.rb seems to consume above as well https://github.com/aimonb/puppet_aviator/blob/master/lib/puppet/feature/faraday/utils.rb#L107 https://github.com/xaque208/puppet-permute/blob/master/lib/puppet/parser/functions/resource_permute.rb#L34 https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-catalog_preview/blob/master/lib/puppet_x/puppetlabs/migration/overview_model/query.rb#L152 https://github.com/willdurand/puppet-nodejs/blob/master/lib/puppet/parser/functions/evaluate_version.rb#L8-L9 returns a NodeVersion which is a subclass of Ruby Array at https://github.com/willdurand/puppet-nodejs/blob/master/lib/puppet/parser/functions/util/nodejs_functions.rb#L3 I couldn't find any uses of the "Oval" types, but I did uncover them in my search https://github.com/ptomulik/rubygems-oval/tree/master/lib/oval Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029-sha1:ae256fe) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
