Can't get the extlookup() that supports yaml to work.
I did this...
On server:
mv /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/parser/functions/extlookup.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/parser/functions/extlookup.rb.orig
Replaced /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/parser/functions/extlookup.rb
with puppet-extlookup/lib/puppet/parser/functions/extlookup.rb
mkdir /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util/extlookup/
Added puppet-extlookup/lib/puppet/util/extlookup.rb to
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util
Added puppet-extlookup/lib/puppet/util/extlookup/csv_parser.rb to
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util/extlookup
Added puppet-extlookup/lib/puppet/util/extlookup/yaml_parser.rb to
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util/extlookup
Added puppet-extlookup/lib/puppet/util/extlookup/puppet_parser.rb to
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util/extlookup
Created /etc/puppet/extlookup.yaml:
---
:parser: YAML
:precedence:
- environment_%{environment}
- common
:yaml:
:datadir: /etc/puppet/extdata
Created /etc/puppet/extdata/settings.yaml:
---
testkey: testval
Calling with:
$test_var = extlookup('testkey', '---', 'settings.yaml')
notice("TEST VAR=$test_var")
And $test_var is always '---'. Replacing settings.yaml with a bogus file
name also returns '---', which tells me that the file isn't being found.
What am I missing here? Quite possibly a lot given the really bad docs.
What is 'precedence' for? Not documented.
Doug.
