Given a site.pp that looks like this:
define test_type (
$value = [],
) {
$type = inline_template('<%= @value.class %>')
notify { "${title} => ${type}": }
}
@@test_type { $::fqdn:
value => [ $::fqdn ],
}
Test_type <<||>>
I get the odd result when run on icinga:
Notice: icinga.angel.net => Array
Notice: puppet.angel.net => String
Seemingly when my type is collected from puppetdb, somewhere in the chain
an implicit type cast occurs. It only seems to occur with arrays
containing a single element.
Kind of annoying in that I can't put type validation in the defined type
and have to 'Array(@value)' in templates. Can't seem to find any mention
of this behaviour, any pointers?
