Hello...
Can someone hit me with a clue stick? I cannot understand why
if defined(File['/tmp/file-bar']) {
notify {"DEBUG if defined class $title THIS NEVER WORKS":}
}
from below does not work. I'm using 2.6.11 from tmz's repo
$ cat file-test.pp
# vim: set syntax=puppet
#
class create-file {
file {"/tmp/file-main":
ensure => exists
}
}
class file-test {
#notify {"class $title":}
include file-test::foo
include file-test::foo::baz
include file-test::bar
include file-test::bar::baz
#if defined(File['/tmp/file-main']) {
#notify {"DEBUG if defined class $title":}
#}
}
class file-test::foo {
#notify {"class $title":}
if defined(File['/tmp/file-main']) {
#notify {"DEBUG if defined class $title":}
}
}
class file-test::foo::baz inherits file-test::foo {
notify {"class $title":}
if defined(File['/tmp/file-bar']) {
notify {"DEBUG if defined class $title THIS NEVER WORKS":}
}
}
class file-test::bar {
notify {"class $title":}
file {"/tmp/file-bar":
ensure => exists
}
}
class file-test::bar::baz inherits file-test::bar {
notify {"class $title":}
if defined(File['/tmp/file-main']) {
notify {"DEBUG if defined class $title THIS DOES WORK":}
}
}
node default {
include create-file
include file-test
}
run results:
$ /bin/rm /tmp/file-bar /tmp/file-main ; puppet file-test.pp | cat -
