More traffic along these lines in #15718 -- I'd be interested in UX decision around these internal variables. ---------------------------------------- Bug #5259: Synonyms (title, namevar, name) make it confusing. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5259#change-69282 Author: Jordan Sissel Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: Randall Hansen Category: Target version: 3.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: consistency usability Branch: * If you're querying a resource, it's Someresource <| title == ... |> * If you're writing a provider, it's called a 'namevar' * If you're implementing a custom define, it's called $name. This is confusing and could benefit from unification, even if it's a small step such as unifying $name and title. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
