If you’re trying to run an exec, you can do this:
file { ‘/tmp/test’:
ensure => present,
content => ‘Hello’,
notify => Exec[‘after’],
}
exec { ‘after’:
command => ‘/bin/echo Created’,
refreshonly => true,
}
subscribe on the exec vs notify on the file works as well as does the chaining
arrow. To me, notify is easier to read but you can mix and match as well. I
think the refreshonly parameter is only available on the exec resource, but you
can also notify other resources such as services which will restart the
service. There are some resources it doesn’t make sense to notify such as
files since the actual file is being validated/updated every puppet run
regardless of what is happening with any other resource.
