Issue #14440 has been updated by Chris Price.
The problem here is that Puppet::Util::Instrumentation.init() doesn't get called for the code path that the rake task is executing. The *real* problem is that we don't have an API, and the rake task is trying to use faces as an API even though we haven't really defined the allowable entry points and initialization steps. I am investigating to find the least evil spot(s) to call this initialization. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14440: Can't get help or man text for instrumentation_* faces via the API https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14440#change-62596 Author: Nick Fagerlund Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Chris Price Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: $ irb >> require 'puppet/face' => true >> manface=Puppet::Face[:man, '0.0.1'] >> helpface=Puppet::Face[:help, '0.0.1'] >> manface.man("facts") (whole man page for facts face) >> manface.man("instrumentation_data") RuntimeError: Could not find terminus for instrumentation_data from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/indirector/face.rb:125:in `indirection' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/face/help/man.erb:123:in `man implementation, required on Ruby 1.8' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/face/man.rb:54:in `man implementation, required on Ruby 1.8' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/interface/action.rb+eval[wrapper]:207:in `__send__' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/interface/action.rb+eval[wrapper]:207:in `man' from (irb):5 >> helpface.help("instrumentation_data") RuntimeError: Could not find terminus for instrumentation_data from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/indirector/face.rb:125:in `indirection' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/face/help/face.erb:76:in `help implementation, required on Ruby 1.8' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/face/help.rb:92:in `help implementation, required on Ruby 1.8' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/interface/action.rb+eval[wrapper]:207:in `__send__' from /Users/nick/src/puppet/lib/puppet/interface/action.rb+eval[wrapper]:207:in `help' from (irb):7 Note that getting man text from the command line works fine; it's just from the API, and it's just for the `instrumentation_data, instrumentation_probe,` and `instrumentation_listener` faces. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
