I have a file with this code in it:
notify {''a'':
message => "${title}"
}
The output after running ''puppet apply file.pp'':
notice: main
notice: /Stage[main]//Notify[a]/message: defined ''message'' as
''main''
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.57 seconds
I expected this output:
notice: a
notice: /Stage[main]//Notify[a]/message: defined ''message'' as
''a''
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.57 seconds
Why is $title considered to have the value "main"?

A resource declaration doesn''t create a new variable scope, so the $title variable has the value of the scope containing the resource, in this case stage main.

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet displays title as ''main''
Thanks! That''s interesting because the documentation consistently refers to the first string following the type of a resource as the "title". Hence, my confusion. I''ll email the puppet folks and ask them just to put a note in the docs to clarify this.
