Title: Message Title

Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden created an issue   Puppet / PUP-10094 Implement a PAL parse() with custom validation handling Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2019/10/06 3:26 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden The use case is puppet-syntax where it's desired to fully parse a file and show all warnings/errors. This is useful in CI or other systems. Currently it's using a Puppet face but this is deprecated. In https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-syntax/pull/108 I've investigated switching to Puppet PAL but ran into limitations. Internally it's using the IssueReporter class that's inflexible. Quoting Henrik Lindberg from https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-syntax/pull/108#issuecomment-538725665 You are correct - there is no PAL parse() operation without validation. That means it will end up in the standard issueReporter (which is only somewhat configurable). The way to capture the output would be by having a logger - i.e. similar to logging to a file ending with .json which makes the logger write json instead of formatted text. I think it is reasonable to add a feature to PAL to make it possible to give parse a kind of "acceptor" to get warnings/errors etc. When implementing that we can make sure it only exposes public API.
