Joao, Take a look at this library, authored by my friend Eric: https://github.com/dalen/puppet-puppetdbquery It provides Puppet functions for querying PDB, its syntax is a wrapper around our own PDB one, but should provide you with the tools to do queries against PDB in a more arbitrary way hopefully avoiding the need for your own curl/shell methodology. You might still need to manipulate the data you receive using other tools, but it should be a good start for what you want. If you get stuck further down the line, respond to this thread. We have plans to solidify this story, and make it closer to our core offerings but I'm wary to get into a vapourware discussion until we have something to show. For now, what I've provided is where you want to look. ken. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
