Puppet users - Sep 2012 - "varargs" usage in Parameterized Classes

Is it possible to define a parametrized class but allowing variable number 
of arguments?
thanks,
adrian

Your best bet with this, just as in Ruby, is to use a hash.

I''ve done it with hashes as Trevor suggests. I do it to pass values to 
templates, what''s your use case?

basically my class looks like this: 
class myclass( $myhash => {}) {
...
}

and I use the class like this: 
myclass { "myclass" : 
    myhash => { "mykey" => "myvalue" },
}

works like a charm.


HTH, 
Axel.
