I have written a module with a init class. Now I have to pass a dynamic value. so I have created a params class and inherited in the init class and trying to access the value. But puppet says Could not find parent resource type <myclass>::params of type hostclass error.

This looks pretty bad :-) Can you paste (excerpts of) your manifest code on pastebin or a similar service? On 11/21/2013 10:11 AM, Raj kumar V wrote:> I have written a module with a init class.

In my module folder, <module/mymodule>
I have 2 files.
init.pp
params.pp
My init code:
class myclass($api_key=$myclass::params::myclassagent_APIkey) inherits
myclass::params{
include myclass::params
some code here...
}include myclass
params.pp got:
class myclass::params{
myclassagent_APIkey='' ''
}
What am i missing?

Still the same error. I have the params in the same init location. http://pastebin.com/nCmcgMi4 look at the pp scripts here....

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Could not find parent resource type
Just a quick remark: If anonymisation is an issue for you, you should definitely go back to pastebin and anynonymise the code there as well. I notice some anti-patterns, but nothing stands out to me that should make the agent fail like that...

I would get rid of that first. >I''m afraid there *is* a reason: class myclass uses a variable from class myclass::params as the default value for its class parameter. The only self-contained way to ensure that that variable''s value is already set when class myclass is evaluated is to inherit from myclass::params. I don''t like that much, but it has become a widely-used pattern.> > > include myclass::params > > This is likely needed, although I''m not sure wether > $myclass::params::myclassagent_APIkey will already be available when > puppet encounters the class declaration header. >That''s absolutely unneeded if the class inherits from myclass::params, as shown. On the other hand, it would be needed and appropriate if the body of class myclass used any variables of class myclass::params and myclass did not inherit from myclass::params.> > some code here... > > > > }include myclass >I''m not very comfortable with putting that ''include'' statement at top level of the module''s init.pp. I think I understand the idea, but it could lead to subtle errors. In fact, it leaves you in the realm of undocumented behavior if you ever try to declare class myclass elsewhere via a parameterized-style declaration (not that I generally account parameterized-style class declarations a good idea, but that seems the direction this is heading).
