Hello all,

I'm looking to create a custom fact based on the result of a host name 
prefix.  Some examples of host names are:

home-server-01
work-server-02

I'd like the fact to assign a role to the server based on it's prefix and 
I'm having a hard time getting this one to work:

require 'facter'
Facter.add('host_role') do
    setcode do
        hostname_array = Facter.value(:hostname).split('-')
        first_in_array = hostname_array.first
        first_in_array.each do |x|
        if x =~ /^(home|work)/
            role = '"#{x}" server'
        else
            role = 'other server'
        end
        role
    end
end

Would anybody have an pointers on why this may not be working.  I feel 
stupid for asking this but my understanding of ruby is quite basic and 
google has stopped taking my calls.

Thank you in advance for the help.

Cheers,

Mike
