Bug #5668: puppet resource exits with 0 despite failing to do as commanded
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5668

Author: Daniel Pittman
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: ralsh
Target version: Telly
Affected Puppet version: development
Keywords: 
Branch: 


The following 'puppet resource' invocation improperly returns 0 in my testing:

    ] puppet resource host test target=/tmp/whatever; echo $?
    notice: /Host[test]/ensure: created
    err: /Host[test]: Could not evaluate: ip is a required attribute for hosts
    host { 'test':
        ensure => 'present',
        target => '/tmp/hosts-1744'
    }
    0

It does correctly report that there is a required attribute missing (ip), but
the exit code is zero.

The usual behavior of a tool like this would be to exit with an error code
indicating that something did not work, so that it could be driven by other
automation solutions.
