Hi all,
I''m considering moving --parseonly to just puppet, rather than it and
puppetmasterd. Considering that it''s really only useful for parsing
a specific file, puppet has the benefit of requiring that you specify
that file directly. Since Puppet now supports multiple environments,
--parseonly becomes both more difficult and more ambiguous when used
with puppetmasterd, because it means going through each environment
and validating.
Does anyone object to moving --parseonly to just puppet, such that we
will always require an explicit file to be checked?
This could complicate things, if you''ve got custom module paths in
puppetmasterd, although the configuration file should be able to
handle that. I think overall this is the simplest way to provide a
consistent and easy-to-use validator.
