Hi, I need to define the hostclass with special character for ex: "swift::proxy-ring" I have tried following ways but not worked: 1) hostclass :swift::proxy-ring do 2) hostclass ''swift::proxy-ring'' do 3) hostclass "swift::proxy-ring" do When I am using the 2 and 3 options it is giving following erroe: undefined method `[]'' for Class:Class at line 1 on node puppet- swproxy.persistent.co.in Thanks in advance, Sateesh B. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hi Felix, Even I tried to remove that Hiphen and tried. Stil I am getting the same error. dir structure is /modules/swift/manifests/proxyinstall.rb in this I have declared the class hostclass "swift::proxyring" do #code here end Still I am getting same error.

Please give me any example for implementing this. Also when I am writing Puppet DSL, it is allowing me the dashes.

Hi, I found what is the issue. The issue is in exec I am using require attribute in which I specified :require => Class[''swift::proxy-install''] How should I need to specify this in Ruby DSL.

Re: [Puppet Users] define hostclass with special characters

I am by no means well-versed in Ruby DSL, but it seems suspicious to me that he is passing a String object to the hostclass() function when that function''s usual first argument is a symbol.

Hi John,
I have solve that class issue. I have specified that as
hostclass :''swift::proxy-ring'' and it worked. My problem is I
have to
run the exec command in the script for which the Class "swift::proxy-
install" is required. So, in general puppet DSL we will write that as
follows:
exec {"somelabel":
command => "command here",
require => Class[''swift::proxy-install'']
}
I need the equivalent Ruby DSL code. I have written the following:
create_resource :exec, "some label", :command => "command
here", :require => Class[''swift::proxy-install''].
Here I got error because I place Class[''swift::proxy-install'']
in
require attribute. As Class is pre-defined in Ruby, we need to write
it another way in Puppet DSL. I want that statement in Ruby DSL.
Thanks in advance,
Sateesh B.

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: define hostclass with special characters
Sateesh, Still not following why you need to use the Ruby DSL. There are many great reasons to ultimately use the Ruby DSL, but right now you are seemingly struggling to learn/understand Puppet fundamentals. I would strongly suggest that the Puppet DSL is there for a reason - it will help you structure your thinking to match the infrastructure you''re working with. -Eric -- Eric Shamow Professional Services http://puppetlabs.com/ (c)631.871.6441 On Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 11:37 PM, sateesh wrote:> Hi John, > > I have solve that class issue.
