I actually prefer the old syntax because we currently we support the usage of:
User <| title == puppet |> {
noop => true
}
Would the new syntax deprecate this feature? It seems rather confusing to read:
collect User { group == sysadmin or title == luke } { noop => true }
On this subject, should we support regular expression?
User <| title =~ /*adm/ |>
Should we allow referencing of resources using this syntax?
require => User[ group == sysadmin ]
Thanks,
Nan
