Okay.

Found the solution.

parameter variables in puppet class have no value within parameters section, their values are assigned only when class begin

                                                    node my.hostname.com {
  include testvincent
}

                                                

                                                    class xxxx (
  DEFAULT PARAMETERS VALUES ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE MOMENT, SO CANT BE USED FOR NOW IN OTHER PARAMETERS

) {
  HERE ALL IS OK
}

                                                

The solution, is to override default parameters value in the node declaration, and, with this the overrided value can be used in another parameter.

So :

                                                    node my.hostname.com {
  class {"testvincent":
    datadir => '/home/test',
  }

                                                

                                                    class testvincent (
   #This default value for $datadir is relatively useless by the way I use it
   $datadir = '/home/test',
   $conf = [
                  "test = ${datadir}",
                  "log-file = /var/log/${fqdn}",
                ],
) {
  echo = inline_template("<%= conf %>")
  notify{$echo:}
}

                                                

Give now the right output :

                                                    Notice: test = /home/testlog-file = /var/log/my.hostname.com

                                                

If there is some good explaination or other workaround not forcing me to override each parameter variable I want to use in another, I love to know it !

Puppet /

PUP-2872

I have the following parameters in my class manifest :
{code}
$datadir = '/home/test',
$confarray = ["datadir = ${datadir}","log-file = /var/log/${fqdn}"],
{code}
And the following in my conf template :
{code}
<%- @confarray.each do |conf| -%>
<%= conf %>
<%- end -%>
{code}
The output on my conf file is :
{code}
datadir =
log-file = /var/log...
