Issue #7788 has been updated by James Turnbull.
So to be clear - this doesn't mean the Puppet DSL is going to go away. Yes it has some oddities but it's also incredibly powerful and covers the needs of 80% of our user's requirements. We're working to identify and fix a lot of those and a lot of the recent dev focus has been on making disparate parts of Puppet more sane. But Puppet with the DSL is way more approachable and usable as a tool than without. ---------------------------------------- Feature #7788: Puppet should allow rubygems to deliver new functionality https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7788#change-65667 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review Priority: Normal Assignee: Kelsey Hightower Category: plug-ins Target version: 3.0.0 Affected Puppet version: Keywords: rubygems autoloader Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/873 It would be desirable to use Rubygems to install things like parser functions. There might be cases where you only want a function on the master, pluginsync would copy it everywhere and everywhere might not have the dependencies needed to run it. If the autoloader considered the rubygem search path while autoloading this should allow gems to extend puppet. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
