These is another question, i have many defines which will apply an
application to sepcified path, called as:
application::add { "app1": path => "/var/app1" }
by this i can apply app1 and app2 in node1, app3 and app4 in node2, etc.
now, how do i switch this to a class? Need i create a seperate class for all
the apps although the only difference is the path?
