Title: Message Title

Андрей Владимирович Семенов created an issue   Puppet / PUP-11857 Notify resource, unexpected behavior Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: Docs, Language Created: 2023/05/19 12:48 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Андрей Владимирович Семенов Puppet Version: 7.24.0 Puppet Server Version: 7.11.0 OS Name/Version: Ubuntu 20.04 ``` TODO class some::path {   notify \{ 'False as message': message => false}      # Ignore resource!   notify { 'True as message': message => true}       # Show `true`   notify { 'Undef as message': message => undef} # Show `` } include some::path ``` https://www.puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/types/notify.html#notify-attribute-message The documentation says that message can only be a string. But if you pass false, you will get a very convenient mechanism for debugging information. To what extent is the use of false acceptable? Desired Behavior: I was expecting something like this ``` Error: Evaluation Error: Illegal title type at index 0. Expected String, got Boolean ``` Actual Behavior: ``` ❯ puppet apply test.pp Notice: Compiled catalog for macbook-air-wilful.local in environment production in 0.02 seconds Notice: true Notice: /Stage[main]/Some::Path/Notify[True as message]/message: defined 'message' as true Notice: Undef as message Notice: /Stage[main]/Some::Path/Notify[Undef as message]/message: defined 'message' as 'Undef as message' Notice: Applied catalog in 0.01 seconds ``` Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.21#820021-sha1:38274c8) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
