Bug #7573: Search action on some indirector faces can never be invoked over
REST due to bug #7004

It is currently impossible to call the search action on `resource_type` (or
certificate, or resource) when you specify `--terminus rest`.
nick@magpie:~$ puppet resource_type --terminus rest --server
redmaster.magpie.lan search '*'
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
err: Could not call 'search' on 'resource_type': Error 400 on SERVER: Could
not find indirection 'resource_typ'
err: Try 'puppet help resource_type search' for usage
Note the truncated indirection name. I am positive this is related to bug
#7004.
When using the REST API, you can work around the busted pluralization magic by
using the `resource_type_search` endpoint instead. Until we can stabilize this
annoying faux-English-plural business for search methods, indirector faces
should always be constructing their REST requests using the reliable `_search`
alias.
Unfortunately, it looks like these URLs are being constructed pretty deep in
Puppet's guts, so it's not just a matter of changing
lib/puppet/indirector/face.rb:
def call_indirection_method(method, key, options)
begin
result = indirection.__send__(method, key, options)
rescue => detail
puts detail.backtrace if Puppet[:trace]
raise "Could not call '#{method}' on '#{indirection_name}': #{detail}"
end
return result
end
On the plus side, I'm guessing fixing it where it lives should solve this
problem for good if we ever end up using search methods somewhere else in
Puppet. (We can't be using them for anything in core yet, right?)
