Hi! Anyone knoe if it''s possible to realize resources with the spaceship operator checking for regex equality? Something like: User<| group =~ /(qa|prod)/ |> If not, anyone know of another way to do this sort of thing? Thanks a lot!

OK... this is similar to something that I''ve been scratching my head
over...
Given something like
@@file { "blah: ${hostname}": .... }
and
@@file {"foo: ${hostname}": ...}
I''m going to have a bunch of exported resources
On one system I want to instantiate all the "blah:" and on another
"foo:"
what mechanism can I use to make that happen?
if I just do File <| |> I''ll get everything and if I do File<|
tag ="blah" |> I''ll miss everything... or am I missing
something?

Perhaps you are missing that resources automatically get tagged with the names of the classes that declare them, and the names of the classes that declare those, etc.. Depending on where your exported resources are declared, you might be able to use that to power File<<| tag == ''mymodule::myclass'' |>>. It could be that you are missing that defined type instances can be exported just like any other resource, so that you could also do define blah () { file { "/etc/blah/${name}": ... } } @@blah { "${hostname}": } ... Blah<<| |>> None of that is intended to say that regex matching in the collection predicate wouldn''t be useful, but there are plenty of ways to be selective about what resources get collected.
