Issue #11858 has been updated by Patrick Carlisle.
The autoloader is configured to pick up specific subdirectories like lib/puppet/type or lib/puppet/provider. I don't think what you're trying to do is supported this way, although you could try moving the file to one of the subdirectories in the docs Kelsey linked to. The behavior inconsistency between plugin_load and autoloading elsewhere is something I'd like to fix. ---------------------------------------- Bug #11858: Plugins only loaded when they are downloaded https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11858 Author: Matthew Leather Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: plug-ins Target version: Affected Puppet version: development Keywords: Branch: Puppet::Configurer::PluginHandler.download_plugins calls load_plugin for each file that was downloaded however if a plugin file is already present on the client then it isn't downloaded so isn't loaded. This seems wrong - though perhaps I'm misunderstanding the purpose of load_plugin. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
