Issue #4433 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Status changed from Needs Decision to Closed
Hiera is the way forward here, and we're not going to invest more time in extlookup. ---------------------------------------- Feature #4433: Add hash support to extlookup https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4433 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: functions Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: 2.6.0 Keywords: Branch: http://github.com/ripienaar/puppet/tree/extlookup_hash_support I've added hash support to extlookup. Really it's time to add yaml support but thats a whole different story. CSV files can now have: <pre> test,key=val another,key=val,foo=bar </pre> And it will return hashesh: <pre> {"key" => "val"} {"key" => "val", "foo" => "bar"} </pre> In the event that not all values have a = in them it will just behave as old and return arrays. My concern here is that we have a small case of breaking backward compatibility should someone already have key=val style values. We should make this clear in the release notes. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
