[Puppet Users] Unable to declare a parameterized class

I have the following manifests

#/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/init.pp
class morefangs {}

#/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/one.pp
class one {
  file {''/tmp/one'':
    ensure => present,
    content => ''moot'',
  }
}    

#/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/two.pp
class two {
  file {''/tmp/two'':
    ensure => present,
    content => ''moot'',
  }
}    

#/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/site.pp
include one
include two

When I run

puppet apply /etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/site.pp

I get the following error

Could not find class one for ec2.compute-1.amazonaws.com at 
/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/site.pp:3 on node 
ec2.compute-1.amazonaws.com

How can I declare this class using the parameterized class syntax and 
the include syntax?

Perhaps this?

include morefangs::one
include morefangs::two
> How can I declare this class using the parameterized class syntax and 
> the include syntax?
For the parameterized syntax, I''m not sure but perhaps:

class { ''morefangs::one'': }
class { ''morefangs::two'': }

Re: [Puppet Users] Unable to declare a parameterized class

Two problems:

One: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/parameterized_classes.html

Your classes have no parameters.

Example from the link:

    class webserver( $vhost_dir, $packages ) {
    
      package { $packages: ensure => present }
     
      file { ''vhost_dir'':
        path   => $vhost_dir,
        ensure => directory,
        mode   => ''0750'',
        owner  => ''www-data'',
        group  => ''root'',
      }
    }

$vhost_dir and $packages are the parameters

Two: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_classes.html

"Classes are named blocks of Puppet code, which are stored in modules for
later use and are not applied until they are invoked by name.”

You are declaring your classes in your site manifest.

I hope this helps.

Re: [Puppet Users] Unable to declare a parameterized class

Hi Francois - 

I tried both syntaxes separately

include morefangs::one
include morefangs::two

class { ''morefangs::one'' : }
class { ''morefangs::two'' : }

and still got the same error message

Could not find class one for ec2.compute-1.amazonaws.com at 
/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/site.pp:3 on node 
ec2.compute-1.amazonaws.com

Re: [Puppet Users] Unable to declare a parameterized class

Hi Ygor - 

Can you ever declare a class with no parameters using the following syntax?
class { ''morefangs::one'' : }

I am new to puppet, are class declarations not allowed in site.pp?  I 
renamed site.pp to test.pp but when I tried to apply the test.pp manifest I 
got the same exact error.  Can you instruct me on how to invoke these 
classes outside of the class file one.pp and two.pp?

Thanks for your assistance.

Re: [Puppet Users] Unable to declare a parameterized class

Your syntax is fine.  The way you are putting the bits together is very messed
up.

It seems to me that you need some basic understanding of Puppet and how it works
and how to use it.

Try these links:

Re: [Puppet Users] Unable to declare a parameterized class

Thanks Ygor - 

I''m currently on the Variables, Conditionals and Facts section of the 
second link you provided.

Can *anyone* who is reading this post please give me a high level 
understanding of how I''m "putting the bits together"
incorrectly?  I''m
really struggling to understand why I''m getting this error message even
though my syntax is correct.

Thanks so much

This is not a problem.  Classes do not have to have parameters, and when 
they do not, they can omit the parentheses around the empty parameter 
list.  That syntax predates parameterized classes, in fact.

That is not a problem either.  It''s perfectly valid to declare classes
at
top level.

There are two problems.  First, your class definitions should give their 
full names.  You seem to be trying to put them into a module (good for 
you), so their correct names would have the module name as a namespace 
prefix, for example:

#/etc/puppet/modules/morefangs/manifests/one.pp

class morefangs::one {
  file {''/tmp/one'':
    ensure => present,
    content => ''moot'',
  }
}
Then, when you declare the classes you specify their fully-qualified names:

include ''morefangs::one''
include ''morefangs::two''

(from anywhere).  That''s what allows Puppet to find the .pp file
wherein
each class is defined, provided that the class it finds therein in fact 
bears requested name.

The clue here was Puppet''s message, "Could not *find* class
one" (emphasis
added).  The code you posted was (all) valid, and not really so far off 
from what you wanted.
