[Puppet Users] I did something stooopid in a custom fact and I do not know what

I''m a custom fact n00b :(

---broadcast.rb:
#Return the broadcast address of eth0 
require ''facter''

Facter.add("broadcast") do
    ipaddr = Facter.value(''ipaddress'')
    nmask = Facter.value(''netmask'')
    setcode do
        Facter::Util::Resolution.exec{"ipcalc -s -b #{ipaddr} #{nmask} |
cut -d= -f2"}
    end
end

...and when I run puppet apply, I get:

Could not retrieve broadcast: wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)

Puppet 2.7.12
ruby 1.8.7 (patchlevel 352) [x86_64-linux]

Try using parenthesis instead of curly braces in
Facter::Util::Resolution.exec ()

You could ALSO do:   setcode("ipcalc -s -b #{ipaddr} #{nmask} | cut
-d-f2")
Passing a string to setcode instead of a block pipes the command to
Facter::Util::Resolution.exec()

Re: [Puppet Users] I did something stooopid in a custom fact and I do not know what

Fantastic !
Thanks, Gary.  I knew it had to be some bone-head boo-boo like that.

I trimmed it down further:

#Return the broadcast address of eth0
require ''facter''
Facter.add("broadcast") do
    setcode ("ipcalc -s -b #{Facter.value(''ipaddress'')}
#{Facter.value(''netmask'')} | cut -d= -f2")
end

You can go further by removing the require facter line as it should be
unnecessary too :)
