Issue #15738 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Assignee changed from Nigel Kersten to Andrew Parker
The idea was that extensions should only be loaded from a strict location, i.e. (and this is off the top of my head, I may have some errors here...) * the type 'foo' would only be loaded from lib/puppet/types/foo.rb * the provider 'baz' for the type 'foo' would only be loaded from lib/puppet/providers/foo/baz.rb * the function 'quux' would only be loaded from lib/puppet/parser/functions/quux.rb Now there are some complications here when it comes to facts, as we have a number of dynamically generated facts, where there cannot be a strict mapping between the fact name and the Ruby file that defines them. I don't believe we have the same problem with types, providers and functions, but I could be wrong there. Andy, was that the general idea? ---------------------------------------- Bug #15738: Deprecate loading loose-extension filenames for plugins/extensions https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15738#change-67956 Author: eric sorenson Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Andrew Parker Category: plumbing Target version: 3.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: telly_deprecation Branch: Nigel -- This needs some detail, I thought I understood this during the deprecation brainstorming but couldn't articulate it when taking down notes so it clearly didn't stick. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
