Previous to this commit, the delete function only acted on
arrays. This commit adds the same functionality for hashes and strings
in the obvious way: delete(h, k) would delete the k key from the h
hash and delete(s, sub) would delete all instances of the sub
substring from the s string.
This function is similar to a coalesce function in SQL in that it will
return
the first value in a list of values that is not undefined or an empty
string
(two things in Puppet that will return a boolean false value).
Typically,
this function is used to check for a value in the Puppet
Dashboard/Enterprise
Console, and failover to a default value like the following:
$real_jenkins_version = pick($::jenkins_version, '1.449')
The value of $real_jenkins_version will first look for a top-scope
variable
called 'jenkins_version' (note that parameters set in the Puppet
Dashboard/
Enterprise Console are brought into Puppet as top-scope variables), and,
failing that, will use a default value of 1.449.
If one wishes to test if a host has a particular IP address (such as a floating
virtual address) or has an interface on a particular network (such as a
secondary management network), the facts that provide this information are
difficult to use within Puppet.
This patch addresses these needs by implementing functions
‘has_ip_address(value)’ and ‘has_ip_network(value)’. These functions look
through all interfaces for ipaddress_<interface> and network_<interface>
(respectively) having the requested <value>.
These functions are implemented on top of a lower-level predicate
function, ‘has_interface_with(kind, value)’, which iterates through the
interfaces in the ‘interfaces’ fact and checks the facts <kind>_<interface>
looking for <value>.
Additionally, the existence of a particular named interface can be checked for
by calling with only a single argument: has_interface_with(interface).
A Boolean is returned in all cases.
This reverts commit 9e8c60a8b7.
This was an error on my part. 3.1.x descends from 3.0.x _and_ 2.5.x, but 3.0.x does
not descend from 2.5.x. I should not have merged 2.5.x into 3.0.x,
instead I should have merged 2.5.x into 3.1.x skipping over the 3.0.x
merge up.
I'm slowly starting to understand the implications of semver on our
branching strategy... =)
This reverts commit c8c7afc7a0, reversing
changes made to 03ec16e291.
This was a mistake on my part. 2.5 is a minor release and minor
releases should never be merged into patch level branches. 2.5.x should
have been merged into 3.1.x instead.
Without this patch stdlib tests fail against Facter 2.x and master but
not 1.6.x.
This patch fixes the problem by initializing the example group
differently depending on the version of Facter integrating into the
system. The adjusted methods are:
1.x - Facter.collection.loader.load
2.x - Facter.collection.load
The collection actually implements the load method in both version, it's
simply marked as private in 1.x.
