Hi, I'm forwarding my question from puppet-users because it didn't get
many answers there...
I'm developing some of my custom types, and some of them share same
params, with exactly the same methods...
For example, I have these params in three of my types and they are same:
lib/puppet/type/mytype1.rb
lib/puppet/type/mytype2.rb
lib/puppet/type/mytype3.rb
newproperty(:comment) do
defaultto ''
end
Is there a way I can maybe extract that code into some external library
and reuse it in all of my three types? Now, this definition is not a
problem, but when you start to include various checks, and override
methods like insync? and your param code grows to 30-40 lines, and you
use it in multiple types, it gets usefull to extract that code to some
external class and include it into these types.
I have same problem with methods in providers, for example:
lib/puppet/provider/mytype1/default.rb
lib/puppet/provider/mytype2/default.rb
lib/puppet/provider/mytype3/default.rb
all have for example:
# sets comment
def comment=(value)
@property_hash[:comment]=(value)
end
Is there a way to extract method provider into some external file and
just include it somehow?
If it's possible I would like to escape a route of creating another
custom type, and add its value to param of another custom type :-/
