That's great, thanks. I had intended to do that when the feature was
approved, but things took so long that I totally lost sight of this. I
have no issue with modifications or rewrites as the originally
submitted code was intended as a proof of concept. In case it still
matters I'm working on the CLA now.

Feature #3323: Create hasreload similar to hasrestart
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3323

Author: Chuck McIntyre
Status: In Topic Branch Pending Merge
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Chuck McIntyre
Category: service
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 0.24.8
Keywords: hasreload, service
Branch: https://github.com/jamtur01/puppet/tree/tickets/master/3323


Many init scripts allow for a "reload" option in addition to a restart and a 
stop/start. 

It would be useful if this could be defined for a given service generically, 
rather than having to resort to an Exec resource or other workaround for cases 
where we want to reload instead of restart (an example could be made using 
apache or bind configuration changes).

I am attaching an example diff (note this is not a patch, nor has it been 
tested) to describe in more detail how this might be accomplished.

I am willing to submit a patch for this if the feature is accepted. I would 
like some guidance as to whether the existing unit test modifications are 
sufficient or if it is necessary to test that (at least) reload and restart get 
called appropriately (not simply that stop/start get called when not specified).
