Issue #14985 has been updated by Andrew Parker. Target version changed from 3.0.x to 3.x
As the 3.0.x line is winding down with the impending release of 3.1.0, I am removing the target at 3.0.x from tickets in the system and targeting them at 3.x instead. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14985: calling_module and calling_class don't always return the calling module/class https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14985#change-80559 Author: Patrick Ramsey Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 3.x Affected Puppet version: 3.0.0 Keywords: hiera calling_class calling_module defined_type Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1214 These two special hiera scope values are looked up by doing ".resource.name" on the Puppet::Parser::Scope from which hiera() was called, with the assumption that this will always return the class name. However, if hiera() is called from within a define, then @real.resource will be an instance of that define, rather than of the class, and the value returned will be the name of that resource rather than of the class. This is unintuitive (as it means calling_module/calling_class aren't set to a module or classname), and it breaks the ability to namespace against calling_class and title (to give specific resources their own configuration) a la :hierarchy: - %{calling_class}/%{title} I'll submit a patch later. For now, I'm working around this by setting a constant inside my puppet define and matching against that in /etc/hiera.yaml, but that's kind of a hack. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
