---------------------------------------- Bug #7987: Module search magic should be improved https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7987 Author: Chris Phillips Status: Needs More Information Priority: Low Assignee: Chris Phillips Category: modules Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.7 Keywords: Branch: Whilst implicit, the current search "magic" described in the documentation is somewhat restrictive. Rather than having the definitions in init.pp or the exact logical path, e.g. class::subclass::subsubclass => modules/class/subclass/subclass.pp the path should be searched up wards from the exact location to init.pp, e.g: modules/class/subclass/subsubclass.pp modules/class/subclass.pp modules/class.pp modules/init.pp In my own use case I have a ::server and a ::client subclass for a number of classes, due to wanting to improve the organisation away from just having a single init.pp I am instantly forced to expand the layout to the fullest possible, with one file per class. I would much rather have a single pp file to hold both the ::server and ::client to ease management (a single file can be copied, not a directory tree) -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
