[Puppet Users] Help writing a custom fact

I''m trying to write a custom fact for Puppet, but I have next to no
Ruby
experience. I think what I''m trying to do is straightforward, but
because
of Facter''s key => value pairs model, it''s kind of
difficult.

Each hosts I want the fact for has websites in /var/www/html/ - I want to
be able to do the following:

Have a fact called "websites" that will tell me how many folders there
are
under /var/www/html

Have a list of facts called website_1, website_2, website_3 which will tell
me the names of these sites. Either that or have an array (if that''s
even
possible) called website_names which will then list all the websites under
that key.

If possible, I''d like the fact to be able to figure out how many
websites
there are with the original "websites" fact and limit the number of
websites underneath.

Any help gratefully appreciated.
