That sounds suspiciously like procedural thinking about a declarative
language.
You should understand that in puppet everything is ''set''
before anything
is ''done''.
Stages just help to order the ''get it done'' part.
So the answer to your question about "a method to access a variable"
is: just access it!
$foo = $otherclass::baz

That leads to the next question. How to access a variable set in the node declaration from a class that executes in the post stage?

Put your variables in a class. Below was tested on puppet 2.7.1. Per node stuff (eg mood) has to be passed in the argument list. Site wide stuff can be defined in the body of class config. node vm01 { class { ''config'': mood => "grumpy", } class { ''sleepy'': stage => post, } notice("done with vm01") } class config($mood) { $h = { a => "aaa", b => "bbb" } $nodefoo = "this is nodefoo" } class sleepy { $foo = $config::mood $baz = $config::nodefoo notice("dopey feels ${foo}") notice("nodefoo is: ${baz}") notice("b is ${$config::h[ ''b'' ]}") } Jul 8 17:58:39 gena puppet-master[23503]: (Scope(Class[Sleepy])) dopey feels grumpy Jul 8 17:58:39 gena puppet-master[23503]: (Scope(Class[Sleepy])) nodefoo is: this is nodefoo Jul 8 17:58:39 gena puppet-master[23503]: (Scope(Class[Sleepy])) b is bbb Jul 8 17:58:39 gena puppet-master[23503]: (Scope(Node[vm01.lan3])) done with vm01 Jul 8 17:58:39 gena puppet-master[23503]: Compiled catalog for vm01.lan3 in environment production in 0.27 seconds -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
