I'm probably going about this all wrong, but I have an instance where I've employed a Puppet module and need to *sometimes* add a "creates" attribute to one of the exec's defined there. My code (below) is probably all wrong, but I think you'll see what I am trying to do... if $creates != nil { exec { "drush-${title}" : command => "drush ${command} ${root_option} ${uri_option} ${force_option} ${additional_options}", path => [ '/bin', '/usr/bin' ], creates => $creates, } } else { exec { "drush-${title}" : command => "drush ${command} ${root_option} ${uri_option} ${force_option} ${additional_options}", path => [ '/bin', '/usr/bin' ], } } This doesn't work and neither does specifying an empty or nil attribute, like "creates => ''" or "creates => nil". If nothing else, I will create two different exec's, one with and the other without a creates attribute. Can anyone suggest a more elegant solution?
