Hello,
I''m trying write a function who''s able to determine if a file
is a
directory or not.
Here''s my function :
module Puppet::Parser::Functions
newfunction(:is_dir, :type => :rvalue) do |args|
File.directory?(args[0])
end
end
And how I use it :
if is_dir("/usr/local/etc") {
file {....}
} else { file{....} }
But it seems not work. It always do the first case.
Any ideas ?
Thanks.

You right, this will not work like this. But I found a part of my problem. Actually, in ruby the function File.directory(MyPath) return true if "MyPath" is a symlink on a directory. Thanks.
