Perhaps I am going at this the wrong way but I am getting far using the vhosts
methodology from Pro Puppet and now I want to optionally include a static text
file.
<% if location_file_inc != '''' %->
<% include #{location_file_inc} %>
<% end -%>
and I have ''/etc/puppet/modules/apache/files/test.txt'' in
$location_file_inc with a bunch of rewrite rules & conditions and even some
specific admin type subdirectory access controls which clearly are vhost
specific and not well generalized.
The above code fails to build a catalog.
What is the best way to ''include'' a file in an erb template (I
think I am good with the conditionals).
Thanks

If your file is just static text, this should work: <%= File.open(''/path/to/file'').read %> If it has actual ERB content, life is more difficult. As an alternative, some folks use one of the various ''concat'' file modules, like the one by R.I.Pienaar, or the providerised version recently posted to the dev list, that allows you to construct the final file on the client.

Make the location_file_inc a separate file and include it from your vhost config. -- Kind Regards, Markus Falb

I forgot that this was available to me. Craig -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
