Hello all, I am trying to set up ssh keys (sshkeys) for populate /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts. So far it works great, but I want to have aliases for all ips online on that host. Two problems: - The assumption is that the interface count and names are unknown. There can be one eth or many, none but a xapi device etc. There is, however, interfaces variable from facter, which holds all the interfaces. - I need to loop through the array and use the contents of that variable, ie: interfaces => eth0,eth1,lo,tun0 ipaddress => 46.229.47.132 ipaddress_eth0 => 46.229.47.132 ipaddress_eth1 => 10.1.0.2 ipaddress_lo => 127.0.0.1 ipaddress_tun0 => 10.10.0.1 So I would need to loop through interfaces, query the variable with the same name to get the ip address. All this by acoiding loopback. - I dont know a good way to then add all compiled aliases into sshkeys. Does anyone have a pointer / solution?

This might be better done with a shell script that calls facter “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” Bill Waterson (Calvin & Hobbes) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christian Reiß" <reiss.symgenius@gmail.com> To: puppet-users@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2013 6:20:41 AM Subject: [Puppet Users] Puppet, Facter, looping through IPs Hello all, I am trying to set up ssh keys (sshkeys) for populate /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts.

You can obtain an array of the interface name from the $interfaces fact like so: $interface_names = split($::interfaces, '','') Given one interface name, you can interpolate the name into a string containing a template, then use the template to evaluate the desired Puppet variable, like so: $interface_ipaddress = inline_template("<%= @ipaddress_${interface_name} %>") But the inline_template() can produce only a string, not an array, and by itself that does not address processing all the interfaces. I see three possible approaches: 1. Write a custom function that computes the array of IP addresses for you 2. Use "future" functions: especially reduce() and maybe reject(). This requires Puppet 3.2; see http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/3.2.latest/function.html#reduce 3. Use an inline template to produce a delimited string of the IP addresses, then split that to get the array you want. I present a possible implementation of (3): $interface_addresses = inline_template(''<% @interface_names.reject{ |ifc| ifc == "lo" }.map{ |ifc| scope.lookupvar("ipaddress_#{ifc}") }.join(" ") %>'') $interface_addr_array = split($interface_addresses, '' '') Note the use of scope.lookupvar(), which is a different way to retrieve the value of a dynamically-chosen Puppet variable.
