Problem: Puppet pushes two files, and two services. One service (redis)
reads one of the files (a lua script), and spits out a sha1sum. However,
it somehow transforms the file before it produces the sha1sum, so there's
no way to know what the sum will be, before the reading.
File two (read by service two) must know what the sha1sum if the first file
is.
Semi-obvious solution: make external fact to read in the file, and produce
the sha1sum as a fact readable by puppet. Use said fact in the template
for file2, and you're done.
However, the facts are generated before any files are changed via puppet.
And I hate having to run puppet twice to converge on a correct setup.
Is there a way for the manifest to do:
file { 'script.lua' :
ensure => 'present',
...
source => 'puppet:///modules/foo/script.lua'
}
->
INSERT MAGIC REREAD FACTS BLOCK
->
file { 'file2' :
ensure => 'present',
...
template => template('foo/file2.erb')
}
?
Thanks for any help.
