Puppet users - Nov 2012 - Require on stored resources

Hi,

is there a way to do something alongs the lines of

Exec { "assembleBINDZoneFile":
   ...
   require => [File["${bindzoneassemblyscript}"], Dnsrecord[
<<| |>> ] ],
}

I''ve written a DNS record Type/Provider. Exporting Dnsrecord resources
with
@@ also works nicely.

Before the zonefine gets assembled, I want to make sure that puppet first 
collects all the Dnsrecord resources from its DB. The first way that come 
to my mind was to put  Dnsrecord[ <<| |>> ] into the "require
=> " line,
however, this does not seem to be the right way: "Error 400 on SERVER: 
Syntax error at ''<<|''; expected
''|>>''" is all I get.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Ray

You should be able to do this via the chain operator:

exec { ''assembleBINDZoneFile'':
   ...
   require => File["${bindzoneassemblyscript}"]
}

Dnsrecord<<| |>> ->
Exec[''assembleBINDZoneFile'']
