[Romain Tartière]

Title: Message Title

Romain Tartière commented on PDB-5350   Re: puppet-query for null fact returns empty set Same bogus behavior on Puppet 7 AIO package on Debian 11: romain@optiplex-3050 ~ % puppet query 'inventory[certname] {}' | jq length 67 romain@optiplex-3050 ~ % puppet query 'inventory[certname] { facts.odoo is null }' | jq length 0 romain@optiplex-3050 ~ % puppet query 'inventory[certname] { facts.odoo is not null }' | jq length 10 I would expect the second command to return the 57 nodes that do not have this fact (number of nodes with fact (10) + number of nodes without fact (57) == total number of nodes (67)). Workaround: "find nodes which are not in the list of nodes that do not have this fact not set" romain@optiplex-3050 ~ % puppet query 'inventory[certname] { ! certname in inventory[certname] { facts.odoo is not null } }' | jq length 57 Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.13.2#813002-sha1:c495a97) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
