I''m having a problem with variable interpolation that I haven''t found a good solution to. I want to use a variable as part of the name of a fact, but the interpolation doesn''t work as expected. I''ve allowed for passing the mac address into my define() but if it''s not provided I want to look it up via facter. if

Hi, I''m looking to combine a couple of fact names with the value of a class parameter to create and lookup the resulting fact''s value. Is that possible? For example, my class will take the parameter "my_default_nic" from beyond. So I know that as long as $my_default_nic exists on the client, then so will facts like macaddress_<NIC>, netmask_<NIC>,

I need to do something like this node foo { $iface = pcn0 ... } # the template <%= network_<%= iface %> %>/<% netmask_<%= iface %> %> The idea being that a file would be built on the client holding the value of pcn0''s network/netmask Of course, I''m trying to avoid hard coding the interface name in order to keep my code portable. Thanks in advance

Sometimes "facter --yaml" doesn''t list all the values specified on the command line. I can''t find rhyme nor reason why. Here''s a demo to show what I mean: # facter --version 1.5.7 # facter --yaml fqdn macaddress lsbdistcodename --- fqdn: my.host.name.example.com lsbdistcodename: squeeze macaddress: "00:00:00:00:00:00" We had been using the above

Hi, I am new to Ruby ERB and inline_template. Can anyone spot what''s wrong with this inline_template? $moddedContent = inline_template("<%= puts gets(nil).gsub(/one two three/,\"\") /tmp/blah %>") exec { "/bin/echo ''${moddedContent}'' > /tmp/blah" : } When I try to apply it, I

I''m running Puppet 2.7.1 on the master as well as the agent and just received a new error which doesn''t actually reference a module or a file, so I''m somewhat stuck as to how to debug this.

Hi all, running into a little problem here. I''ve a list of things with a "New thing" link beneath it. When you click that link, obviously, a new thing shall be created. Now, that works pretty fine for things that don''t have foreign keys, but for things that do it crashes, since there is not yet a thing.other_thing.name available. I suspect you can somewhere in

Hi, I am having an issue trying to use the inline_template function to return an array. This is what I do: $array = inline_template ("<%= a=[''a1'',''b2'',''c3'']; a %>") notify {"array: ${array}":} And that works, showing the typical comma-less string: notice: /Stage[main]//Notify[array: a1b2c3]/message: defined

I''m trying to manipulate the following facter variable: ipaddress => 10.85.207.2 What I need is the second group of digits. If it''s 84 then location is A, but if it''s 85 then location is B. In puppet I couldn''t grab this second set of digits, but maybe there is a way? I''ve already tried to make a custom fact, but my ruby knowledge is *ahem* pretty

Hi, I want to use a file resource to write a facts.yaml file for Mcollective. For some reason it won''t provide a valid yaml format if I dump my scope to hash and convert to_yaml. file { "/etc/mcollective/facts.yaml" : owner => root, group => root, mode => 400, loglevel => debug, #content => inline_template("<%= scope.to_hash.reject {

I tried to use a Puppet variable named "$memory" and access it from a template, like this: $memory = 4711 file { "/tmp/test.txt": content => inline_template("memory = <%= memory %>\n"); } One would think that my file would contain "memory = 4711" after that, but instead the memory variable seems to hold a

I''d like to include similar information that notice() spits out in a file I am generating -- basically so that anyone looking at the generated file (actually a file fragment) could trace it back to the class that is generating the entry. Using $name within the file fragment is the closest I am getting to what I want -- is there anything better? -- You received this message because you
