Description

RHEL5 host, puppet-0.25.5-1.el5 and ruby-augeas-0.3.0-1.el5 packages from the EPEL repository.

Per the 2009-06-05 commit at http://tinyurl.com/4w6ssjf , it looks like defvar is supported in 0.3.0.

Example manifest code:

bondprobe { [ "bond0", "bond1" ]: }

define bondprobe() {
  augeas { "bondprobe-$name":
    context => "/files/etc/modprobe.conf",
    changes => [
      "defvar nomatch '.[count(alias[. = \"$name\"]) = 0]'",
      "set \$nomatch/alias[last()+1] $name",
      "defvar match '/files/etc/modprobe.conf/alias[. = \"$name\"]'",
      "set \$match/modulename bonding"
    ],
  }
}

Returned error:

err: /Stage[main]/test-server/Bondprobe[bond0]/Augeas[bondprobe-bond0]: Failed to retrieve current state of resource: Unknown command defvar

aaaaaand I filed this under documentation :)

Can somebody move this to the main Puppet project, or does it need to be duplicated?

The lack of some of the new commands has been bugging me too, so I’ve added support for defvar, defnode, setm and mv. Currently setm is only available in the unreleased ruby-augeas tree, it isn’t included in ruby-augeas 0.3.0 so simply won’t work for the time being.

Commits are on my github branch and posted to -dev.
