Issue #19472 has been updated by Rob Nelson. Status changed from Unreviewed to Rejected
Trevor, you appear to be asking for puppet to determine what work needs to be done before it determines what work needs to be done. While this might be feasible in some situations, the amount of work required to resolve facts is tiny in the scheme of things. If you can point to a specific example of a fact that can be checked before it's checked (or I'm totally misunderstanding what it is that you are asking for) feel free to submit another issue with a more verbose description and some examples. ---------------------------------------- Feature #19472: Would like to see the ability to selectively sync facts. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19472#change-98289 * Author: Trevor Vaughan * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: compiler * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: fact, factsync, runtime * Branch: ---------------------------------------- Puppet clients will run whatever facts are sync'd to them which is fine until you start getting tons of random facts from the module forge. Having the ability to detect if a client actually *needs* to run or sync a fact prior to running the fact would be a great feature. I'm not entirely sure if this is possible, but having a lot of unnecessary work being done on every client is not ideal. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
