[Puppet Users] Custom type and provider

I have been messing with this for a while and have had no luck so
hoping someone here can help.

I created a customer type called autofs and a provider that uses
ParsedFile to parse the auto_direct file according to what I found
here: http://www.kartar.net/2010/02/puppet-parsedfile-types-and-providers/

The type is located at .../devl/common/lib/puppet/type/autofs.rb
The provider is located at .../devl/common/lib/puppet/provider/autofs/
autofs.rb

I get the following when running puppetd:
...

SERVER: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError:
Invalid resource type autofs at .../devl/base/manifests/autodf.pp:8 on
node testserver.test.com


The manifest that uses the type looks like this;
   autofs {
      "/mnt/test":
         source => "testnas:/vol/vol3/mountme";
   }



The type is not finished, but so far is coded as follows:

Puppet::Type.newtype(:autofs) do
  @doc = "Manage contents of autofs maps, etc."

  ensurable

  newproperty(:path) do
    desc "Location of the auto fs file to manage."

    defaultto {
      if
        @resource.class.defaultprovider.ancestors.include?
(Puppet::Provider::autofs)
        @resource.class.defaultprovider.default_target
      else
        nil
      end
    }

    validate do |value|
      unless value =~ /^\/[a-z0-9]+/
        raise ArgumentError, "#{value} is not a valid file path"
      end
    end
  end

  newproperty(:mount) do
    desc "The mountpoint where autofs should mount the file system"

    isnamevar

    validate do |value|
      if value =~ /^\s*#/
        raise ArgumentError, "#{value} is not a valid key."
      end
    end
  end

  newproperty(:source) do
    desc "The source of the file system to mount."

    validate do |value|
      unless value =~ /[a-z0-9\.]+:\/[a-z0-9\.]+/
        raise ArgumentError, "#{value} is not a valid nfs source."
      end
    end
  end

  newproperty(:options) do
    desc "The options to use when mounting the file system."

    validate do |value|
      unless value =~ /^-/
        raise ArgumentError, "#{value} is not a valid option."
      end
    end
  end
end



The provider is coded as follows:
require ''puppet/provider/parsedfile''

path = nil
case Facter.value(:operatingsystem)
when "Solaris"; path = "/etc/auto_direct"
else
  path = "/etc/auto.direct"
end

raise Puppet::Error, "Path not defined." unless File.exists?(path)

Puppet::Type.type(:autofs).provide(:parsed, :parent =>
Puppet::Provider::ParsedFile, :default_target => path, :filetype
=> :flat) do

  desc "The autofs provider that uses the ParsedFile class"

  text_line :comment, :match => /^#/;
  text_line :blank, :match => /^\s*$/;

  record_line :parsed, :fields => %w{name options source},
    :optional => %w{options}
#    :match => %r{(\S+)\s+(\S+)\s+(\S+)},
end

[Puppet Users] Re: Custom type and provider

Well... If there aren''t any ideas on the cause can anyone tell me
if I am using ParsedFile correctly? Or if there is a resource for
documentation on this class? I am just beginning to use ruby so trying
to figure out what is provided by the class by looking at the source
is going to be difficult.

Thank you

You can look at other types and provider based on ParsedFile. I don''t
believe there''s any official documentation.

The issue here appears to be a problem with puppet master finding your
custom type. I don''t know if /devl/ is part of your puppet master
module path. Check your config and you can also try:

RUBYLIB=.../devl/common/lib/ puppet master --no-daemonize -v

Also if you just developing it, puppet apply with the appropriate
module path might be easier to troubleshoot than the full agent/master
mode.

Thanks,

Nan
