Bah, that's an ugly hack.
You might want to try:
$content = inline_template(...)
exec { "generate_facts_yaml":
command => "/bin/false",
unless => "echo '$content' > /path/to/file",
}
Note that despite never logging anything, this *will* fire on each
catalog run. It's bound to disturb whoever else needs to maintain your
manifests. Don't do it if you can avoid it in any possible way.
Cheers,
Felix
