Bug #16997: Allow path environment to be specified on a per-resource basis
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16997#change-73796

Keywords: windows command execute path gem
Branch: 


Currently, only the exec resource type permits the path to be specified for 
commands it executes. However, it would be generally useful for other resource 
types. For example, to specify the path to use when executing package commands 
(that are relative).

The only workaround is to modify the provider source or to use the 
<http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/configuration.html#path> setting, 
though that is global, and won't work in cases where a module installs a 
package in a location that isn't already in the path, e.g. Java applications on 
windows.

Original description:

Hi,

I just installed ruby1.9.3.exe package on a windows build server and also i was 
thinking on installing some gems. It seems that is installing the gems as part 
as as the 1.8.7 ruby version shipped with the Puppet Client windows installer. 

<pre>
class ruby{

file {'ruby':
        name => 'C:\Temp\rubyinstaller-1.9.3-p194.exe',
        ensure => present,
        source => 'V:\shardata\Puppet\rubyinstaller-1.9.3-p194.exe'
}


exec { 'ruby':
                command => 'C:\Temp\rubyinstaller-1.9.3-p194.exe /verysilent 
/dir="C:\ruby" /tasks="assocfiles,modpath"',
                require => File["ruby"]
        }
        
        
# package { 'nokogiri':
        # ensure => '1.5.5',
        # provider => 'gem',
        # require => Exec['ruby']
# } 
</pre>

Should I still use the gem provider or should i use the exec and map the new 
ruby package gem.bat path?
