---------------------------------------- Feature #16647: Client-side soft alternative to fail() https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16647#change-72071 Author: Dan Carley Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: eric sorenson Category: functions Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: soft fail immutable Branch: It would be useful to have a softer alternative to `fail()` which could client-side fail individual resources and those that depend on them, rather than server-side aborting the entire catalog compilation. An example use case could be a parameterised class that validates the values it receives. If given invalid values then you would want to generate a real error and prevent the resources (plus reverse dependencies) from being created or modified. But you wouldn't necessarily want to stop the rest of the catalog from being enforced in the meantime. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
