Warron, Hiera is a lot easier than it seems! If you join the puppet slack ( https://slack.puppet.com), I'm sure we could help you get it set up quickly and properly. It will probably solve a dozen other problems you didn't even know you had, too :) Rob Nelson rnels...@gmail.com On Thu, Mar 30,

Re: [Puppet Users] Spec testing and dalen-puppetdbquery

A bit late to the party here, but in my (rspec-puppet) tests I have created a mock version of the function in a before(:each) block in the unit test for the class, like this: before(:each) do Puppet::Parser::Functions.newfunction(:query_nodes, :type => :rvalue) { |_| ["foo.example.com",

Re: [Puppet Users] Custom Facts using awk

%x is a ruby method which captures command output. IMO you can do most of what you need using native ruby methods, there's no need to pipe output to grep/sed/awk since ruby has built in pattern matching functions and if you're using ruby you might as well do it the ruby way. For example, this

Hi Luke, I have some questions for you. First, the link= https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apache/blob/master/lib/facter/apache_version.rb didn't have any reference to awk at all, was this the file you intended to suggest? Secondly, the link=

Hi Rob, I am not quite (personally/professionally) ready for Hiera yet. I also need to learn more about ERB templates; which I did a little research on about 2 hours ago. Honestly, what you provided above to me, because I am not ready/fully understanding yet, has no context for me to implement

Re: [Puppet Users] facters or Custom Facts

You could create a parameter called `$manage_audispatch = false` and in hiera, set `profile::whatever::manage_audispatch: true` in hiera for qualified devices (probably osfamily of RedHat, os/release/major of 6). Your code conditional is very simple (`if $manage_audispatch { .. }`), abstract out

Puppet modules on Github are a good source. I've found a simple one: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apache/blob/master/lib/facter/apache_version.rb And one of my own that's a little more complicated:

[Puppet Users] Re: Augeas-1.5.0 to edit file using Puppet

Is there any reason you're not using the built-in 'host' type? For example, this adds an entry to /etc/hosts: host {'north.xyz.com': ip => '192.168.100.2', host_aliases => [ 'north', 'main-switch' ], } On Thursday, 30 March 2017 09:55:33 UTC+2, Shrawan Bhagwat wrote: > >
