| Puppet Version: 5.5.1
Puppet Server Version: N/A
OS Name/Version: Centos 7.4.1708 Many `puppet` applications such as `puppet facts` and `puppet catalog` take a `–terminus` option to specify what indirector to use. These applications generally also specify a `–extra` argument, like so: `--extra HASH - Extra arguments to pass to the indirection request` As far as I can determine, this argument is not actually possible to use, since any argument supplied to the `–extra` option is treated by Ruby as a String. For example, `puppet facts --terminus network_device --extra '{target => "example-device"}'` results in `Error: Could not call 'find' on 'facts': undefined method `inject' for "{target => \"example-device\"}":String` The same results are had when trying other hash-ish syntaxes such as JSON or key-value pairs. If there's some existing syntax that will actually work here, it should be documented. But I had a look through the source code, and I don't think any such syntax exists. Describe steps to reproduce… `puppet facts --terminus network_device --extra <anything at all here>` Desired Behavior: **The `–extra` argument should function, or should be removed. Actual Behavior: ``` $ sudo puppet facts --terminus network_device --extra '{target => "example-device"}' --trace
Error: Could not call 'find' on 'facts': undefined method `inject' for "{target => \"example-device\"}":String
