Specifically, the Dashboard code declares a bunch of stub objects that are only used to support YAML deserialization of the Puppet report objects. They are not intended to do anything but work around quirks of the Ruby system, and our reports being the strict model of the objects that implement them. (Also, loading the two at the same time has, historically, been an explicit non-goal for the projects, so we could quite reasonably have code on either side that assumes the behaviour is *not* the same as the other, for the same object.) I have no idea what code in Dashboard might potentially call accessors that, when Puppet is loaded, cause behaviour to occur that is absolutely unexpected. Nick Lewis, meanwhile, had a strategy that I understand allowed us to do away with these dummy objects entirely in Dashboard when we unpack those reports. A safer strategy might be to head down that path, and make sure we don't need the dummy objects at all. ---------------------------------------- Bug #5719: Dashboard tries to declare Puppet::Resource as a module https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5719 Author: Luke Kanies Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected URL: Affected Dashboard version: This makes it so you can't load both Puppet and Dashboard at the same time.
