Puppet users - Jul 2007 - How to require a defined type...

Hi all,

I''m struggling with the following:

I have a defined type wrapped in a class:
class myclass {
	define mytype(bla) {
		file { "blabla":
			....
		}
		exec { "blablabla":
    			...
		}
	}
}

And I access the defined type in my other class by doing this:

class otherclass {
	include myclass
	myclass::mytype { "alb":
		...
	}
	# and here I want to require my defined type:
    	file { "albalb:
		ensure	=> "exists",
		require	=> Myclass::mytype["alb"],
	}
}

But puppet burps at me and says the syntax is wrong. But how can I do  
this (if I can at all)?

This should be fixed in 0.23.1.

  I have a switch in my apartment... It doesn''t do anything. Every once
  in a while, I turn it on and off. One day I got a call... It was from
  a woman in France... She said, "Cut it out!"

Wouldn''t this also work?

* disclaimer *
is still trying to fully grok include vs. inherit
* end disclaimer *

class otherclass inherits myclass {
     mytype { "alb":
        ....
     }
     file { "foo":
        require => mytype["alb"],  # or would this be just
"alb" since it''s
already defined as a resource
     }
}

You would want to upper case it:

require => Mytype["alb"]
