Hi,
I'm unfortunately more a java/c/c++/perl guy than a ruby kind of
programmer :-(
I started working on a service provider for daemontools, but I'm stuck
with the following issue:
Here is a snippet of my provider I produced using pattern matching from
other providers:
Puppet::Type.type(:service).provide :daemontools, :parent => :base do
desc "Daemontools service management."
commands :svc => "/usr/bin/svc"
commands :svstat => "/usr/bin/svstat"
class << self
attr_accessor :defpath
attr_accessor :srcpath
end
case Facter["operatingsystem"].value
when "Debian":
@defpath = "/etc/service"
@srcpath = "/var/lib/service"
else
@defpath = "/service"
@srcpath = "/var/lib/service"
end
...
def enabled?
appdir = File.join(self.defpath, @resource[:name])
FileTest.symlink?(appdir)
end
...
Unfortunately, when puppet calls my service provider to know if a provider
is enabled, it fails with:
err: //Service[dnscache]: Failed to retrieve current state of resource:
undefined method `defpath' for
#<Puppet::Type::Service::ProviderDaemontools:0x7fec6f440198>
OK, so I rewrote enabled? to use @defpath, but now it fails with:
err: //Service[dnscache]: Failed to retrieve current state of resource:
can't convert nil into String
There is certainly something I missed, I understand that the provider
class is built from scratch with parts from the service class and parts
from my provider.
What is the way to access properties of my provider in the provider method
(like status, start, stop...)
Thanks,
