Hey Folks!
We are officially shipping a gem for Facter 3.11.0! There is both a source and a set of precompiled gems available for installation. We understand that migrating from Facter 2 to Facter 3 is not a small task. As such we have decided to ship Facter 3 technically as a ‘pre-release’ gem. The version of the official release of facter 3.11.0 will be: facter-3.11.0.cfacter.20180319 Note that this means in order to make use of facter 3.11 in your gemfile or gemspec you will need to specify the version all the way down to ‘.cfacter’: gem facter, ‘~> 3.11.0.cfacter’ Using ‘--pre’ with rubygems will pull down the latest facter 3 gem for you: gem install facter --pre We are shipping the first facter 3 gems as ‘pre-releases’ to allow users (and ourselves) some time to use the new gem and find out what and where we need to improve the gem before moving it to a standard release. We fully plan on shipping Facter 3 as a standard release gem in the near future, but we would like users to try out the pre-release gem first and gather some feedback. Currently, the first iteration of the facter 3 gem does not include the facter binary, and is missing EC2 support. For this release we are focused on learning about incompatibilities in module testing. Please download the new Facter 3 gem and try it out! We would love your feedback -- Sean P.
