Hi,
I'm using Puppet 4 and I'm wondering if this (see below) is possible.
I have 2 Puppet modules, moda and modb. We can imagine that theses
modules
have just one class init.pp.
"init.pp" is the name of a manifest file, not of a class. Moreover,
although it's poor form, such a manifest could contain definitions for
more than one class. Moreover, in
The class ::moda has a parameter "param" with
the default value defined in the code of "./moda/functions/data.pp".
"./moda/functions/data.pp" appears to be the name of another manifest
file. I suppose it's instead supposed to be a Ruby (.rb) file defining
a custom function, and although I can speculate based on its name what
it might do, the details matter, and you have not provided them.
In Puppet 4.x you can have functions written in the Puppet Language.
Those reside under <module>/functions/<name>.pp
The data.pp is thus for a function called data. Such a function can be
used to provide data for a module - it is supposed to return a hash of
key => value mapping.
In addition to writing the function, a module can opt in to using this
data functions by adding a configuration in its module metadata.
This is all part of the 4.x data in modules / lookup feature.
In Puppet 4.3.0 we also added the ability to use hiera data in modules.
