----------------------------------------
It seems puppet thinks that variables evaluate to true even when they are
explicitly set to false in hiera YAML.
In my searching it seems like this should be fixed but with hiera 1.2.1 and
puppet 3.2.1 I'm still seeing this.
In my YAML I have:
# Java directives
java :
enable_jdk : false # Install the JDK as well as the JRE
enable_v6 : true # Install Java 6
enable_v7 : false # Install Java 7
openjdk : true # Install OpenJDK
sun : false # Install Sun
And in one of my manifests I do something like:
class java::install (
$parameters = hiera('java', []),
) {
if $parameters['openjdk'] == true {
if $parameters['enable_v6'] == true and $java::params::openjdk_6_jre {
package { $java::params::openjdk_6_jre:
ensure => latest,
}
if $parameters['enable_jdk'] == true and
$java::params::openjdk_6_jdk {
package { $java::params::openjdk_6_jdk:
ensure => latest,
}
}
}
…
No matter what it thinks it should install the JDK package even though the
parameter is set to false. I've tried setting it 0, False, n, and N and it
always evaluates to true. Is this a known bug and if so is there a workaround?
