hi,
in the logs of our 2.7.10 puppet master we find messages like these:
Dynamic lookup of $functie at /etc/puppet/manifests/server_classes.pp:52 is
deprecated. Support will be removed in Puppet 2.8. Use a fully-qualified
variable name (e.g., $classname::variable) or parameterized classes.
However, I'm a bit worried that a key functionality will be removed in 2.8:
we set a param/value in every node telling the node what it's funtion is
and use that in a variety of manifests to decide how to configure the
server.
we use something like:
node servera {
$function = 'webserver'
include function_dependent_services
}
node serverb {
$function = 'dbserver'
include function_dependent_services
}
class function_dependent_services {
include iptables
include motd
}
class iptables {
file {
"/etc/iptables/cfg-firewall":
content => template("iptables/cfg-firewall.erb");
}
}
and then, somewhere in the erb we evaluate <%= function %>
will this be broken in 2.8?
and, if yes: how should we tell the erb the param that changes for a lot of
nodes?
or should I file this as a bug for v2.8?
please help us out, thanks in advance
Alex
