The time() function takes an argument of a timezone, and always returns
time in epoch format. The epoch format is the number of seconds that
have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap
seconds. This means that it is universally the same regardless of
timezones.
I don't know what the timezone argument is supposed to do, and it is not
documented. So lets just make 1.8.7 work like > 1.8.7
Previously, the random number generator was seeded with the array or
string to be rotated in addition to any values specifically provided for
seeding. This behavior is potentially insecure in that it allows an
attacker who can modify the source data to choose the post-shuffle
order.
Tests in the new style produces the following documentation output:
abs
should not eq nil
should run abs() and raise an Puppet::ParseError
should run abs(-34) and return 34
should run abs("-34") and return 34
should run abs(34) and return 34
should run abs("34") and return 34
Without this, file_line resource without the `match` parameter but with the `after` param will throw an error if there are multiple matches for the after expression. This patch creates the handling for the `multiple` parameter in handle_create_with_after. This allows you to add a line after the `after` expression if it appears at multiple points in a file.
Updated reference to `file_line` in the README to reflect that the multiple parameter can be set when using `after` and/or `match` as the matching regex.
Without this, the global seed is reseeded on every use
of fqdn_rotate, which is a waste. Older rubies might even use a
time-base seed which adversly impacts the quality of the RNG.
As mentioned in #270, private is a reserved keyword in the future parser
which is to be released with Puppet 4. As it stands, this function is
not useable with the future parser so it needs to renamed.
This is a breaking change.
The previous commit to uriescape() changed the implementation to use the ruby default escape list for URI.escape(), but did not change the call triggered when uriescape() was called on an array, triggering ruby errors.
As per puppetlabs/puppet@292233c, this leaves the global seed in a
deterministic state, which is bad. Puppet::Util.deterministic_rand()
exists to avoid running into this issue, but is only present starting in
Puppet 3.2.0.
The `type()` function will cease to work on the new parser because 'type'
is a reserved keyword. The `type3x()` function may be used to continue
similar functionality, but will be deprecated in favor of the built-in
typing system.
The `type_of()` function has been included to introspect types in the
new parser.
