Issue #20200 notes that the merge function does not
support nested hashes.
To prevent unintended side effects with changing merge,
add a deep_merge function instead.
The issue #20681 describe the error of delete() function
removing the elements from the origin array/hash/string.
This issue affected other delete functions. Because
ruby delete and delete_if functions make destructive
changes to the origin array/hash.
The delete_undef_values removed elements from the
origin array/hash and this is not the desired behaviour.
To solve this, we should dup or clone the array/hash
before using the delete or delete_if ruby functions.
We should also check if args[0] is not nil before using
dup, since dup on nil raises exception.
This fix the problem and add unit tests, so we could
enforce this behaviour and prevent regressions.
As stated on the issue #16498, it would be great to have unit tests
for all the functions.
Function loadyaml was missing a unit test. This commit added the
unit test to loadyaml function.
The issue #20681 describe the error of delete() function
removing the elements from the origin array/hash/string.
This issue affected the other delete functions.
The delete_at function is not afected by this bug, but
it did not had the unit test to check against it.
I had added the unit test so we could prevent regressions
on the future and also have better test coverage.

The setup: list with 3 elements, delete one:
$test_list = [‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’]
$test_deleted = delete($test_list, ‘a’)
Print out the elements in ‘test_deleted’:
notify { ‘group_output2’: withpath => true, name => “$cfeng::test_deleted”, }
Notice: /Stage[main]/Syslog/Notify[group_output2]/message: bc
Good! Run-on output shows that ‘a’ was deleted
Print out the elements in ‘test_list’:
notify { ‘group_output1’: withpath => true, name => “$cfeng::test_list”, }
Notice: /Stage[main]/Syslog/Notify[group_output1]/message: bc
WHAT!? 'a' was deleted from ‘test_list’ as well! Expected abc as output!
This behaviour is confirmed for string, hash and array.
This is fixed on this commit, I had added two spec tests to cover that cases.
bug #20681 spec test for delete() function.
I had forgot in the last commit the spec test for hash in the
delete function.
bug # 20681 delete() function change aproach.
Instead of rejecting elements from the original list, we use
collection = arguments[0].dup .
then latter we could continue to use delete and gsub! on collection
without impact on original argument.
this is a better solution than the previous one, and works on ruby
1.8.7, 1.9.3 and 2.0.0.
The previous solution does not work on ruby 1.8.7.
delete function remove typo whitespace.
fix typo whitespaces.
When pick function fail return a better error message like
the other stdlib functions, indicating that the error
is on function pick.
This would help people that see the error to identity it is
related to a incorrect use of stdlib function pick, instead of having
to grep all puppet libraries and manifests source for the old message.
I had also changed the spec test.
pick function change spec as suggested GH-179
Fix the spec test to use expect {}.to instead of lambda {}.should
as explained by Adrienthebo.
"Using expect { }.to is preferred over lambda { }.should.
In addition it's best practice to do a string match against the
error message to ensure that we're catching the right error,
instead of any error of the right type."
Also fixed a typo on the error message, it was missing one space.
pick function stylish fix as suggested on GH179
Without this patch the implementation of the file_line provider is a bit
convoluted with respect to the newly introduced "after" parameter.
This patch addresses the problem by separating out the concerns of each
case into their own methods of handling the behavior with the match
parameter, handling the behavior with the after parameter, or simply
appending the line.
When adding new lines to a file the 'after' option can be useful
when you need to insert file lines into the middle of a file.
This is particularly helpful when using file_line with sectioned
config files.
NOTE: the after option only works when adding new lines. If you are
updating an existing (matched) line it will simply modify it in place.
This assumes it was in the right place to begin with.
Without this patch the stdlib spec tests are failing against recent
versions of Puppet. The root cause of this problem is a change in the
behavior of create_resources in Puppet 6baa57b. The change in behavior
caused the :name key to be omitted from the hash returned by
Puppet::Parser::Resource#to_hash which in turn is causing the test
failure.
This patch addresses the problem by updating the test to match the
description of the example. Only the attribute :ensure is checked
instead of the full hash itself.
Without this patch the location_for helper method in the Gemfile
incorrectly assumes the mdata variable has a value. This patch
addresses the problem by explicitly binding the regular expression match
results to the mdata variable to ensure it has a value when accessed by
index.
During a puppet run an error will be thrown and a puppet run will fail completely (when using validate_slength):
undefined local variable or method `arg' for #<Puppet::Parser::Scope:0x7f243c236948>
An optional third parameter can be given a min length. The function
then only passes successfully, if all strings are in the range
min_length <= string <= max_length
update and fix function and unit tests
the check for the minlength has to be written differently
because 0 values should be possible. We now check
a) if the input is convertible, and throw a ParseError and
b) if the input .is_a?(Numeric) and ask for a positive number
it's not as clean as for maxlength, but keeps a similar behaviour
refined the error checking for the min length
try to convert to Integer(args[2]) and fail,
if it's not possible
changed the tests accordingly to the new parameter checking
