Don't know if I am out on a limb here, but did you try setting class
defaults?
class puppet::master inherits puppet {
class { 'puppet': puppetmaster_fqdn => "my wanted value" }
# ...
}

Hi,
I am trying to manage the puppet.conf file, but both my classes
'puppet' and 'puppet::master' need to manage it. Basically, the class
'puppet::master' should be able to override the resource, which could
be done by inheritance.
My problem is that my class 'puppet' is a parameterized class:
class puppet ( $puppetmaster_fqdn ) {
file { '/etc/puppet/puppet.conf':
content => template('puppet/puppet.conf.erb'),
}
# (...)
}
and so, i don't find any syntax to inherit from it:
class puppet::master ( $with_dashboard = 'yes',
$with_cloud_provisioner = 'no'
) inherits puppet {
# (...)
}
fails with
err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on
SERVER: Must pass puppetmaster_fqdn to Class[Puppet] at /etc/puppet/
modules/puppet/manifests/puppet.pp:1 on node (...)
I tried different ways to declare my class 'puppet::master', but i do
not find the right syntax, it always fails
class puppet::master ( $puppetmaster_fqdn = 'something',
$with_dashboard = 'yes',
$with_cloud_provisioner = 'no'
) inherits puppet {
# (...)
}
class puppet::master ( $with_dashboard = 'yes',
$with_cloud_provisioner = 'no'
) inherits puppet( puppetmaster_fqdn =>
'something' ) {
# (...)
}
What is the good syntax for that ?
Note also that i tried to work around the problem by using a virtual
resource for my File['/etc/puppet.conf'], and realize it in both
classes (without inheritance) but it did not end up as i wished. It
worked, but the templated file missed the content which should have
been triggered by the variables $with_dashboard from class
'puppet::master'
