Hi,

I am trying to write a manifest that iterates through an array to create 
and maintain application users.
The list of users is passed to the manifest from init.pp in the following 
fashion:

*$app_users = [ at1,et1,at2,et2 ]*

The users.pp manifest then reads the array to create the users:

* define appuser {
    user { $name:   
    ensure           => 'present',
    comment          => "Application User - $name",
    gid              => 'app',
    home             => "/apps/$app/$name",
    shell            => '/usr/bin/bash',
  }
 }
 
 appuser  { $app_users: }
*
This solution worked very well with another module I wrote, but in this 
case the home directory path includes a variable, that depends on the user 
name.

Adding the following if statement inside the resource issues an error:

*    if $name =~ /^(et|ep)/ {
     $app = "echos"
     notice('app is $app') 
     }*

*Syntax error at 'if'; expected '}' at .../users.pp:9 *

I read somewhere that you cannot place an if statement inside a resource, 
and in that case, what are my options?
We're using puppet master version 2.7.19 (Puppet Enterprise 2.7.0).


Thanks in advance!
