Yes, I think that's more apropos in this context. To my knowledge, Puppet
uses the underlying Ruby's regex syntax. Rubular's tester, which appears
to do the same, would probably give more applicable answers.
As to the OP's question, however, I don't think Ruby's regex syntax
recognizes zero-width assertions. This problem might be approachable via
reliance on Puppet's node matching behavior: if only regex node
declarations and maybe a default declaration match a given node, then the
lexically first matching regex node is used. Therefore, if all *geoserver
nodes are matched by specific node declarations or earlier regex node
declarations then the trailing assertion should not be needed.
Example:
node /.*geoserver$/ {
# something
}
node /^dev-[^\s]*$/ {
# something else
}
