Facter / FACT-2300 Incomplete Facter results on Raspberry Pi 4 with "gem install puppet" Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2020/01/18 8:12 AM Priority: High Reporter: Vijay Kumar Hello Puppet Facter Team, Hope you are doing well. Thank you for your awesome support!. Currently, I am trying to manage multiple Raspberry Pi 4/ Jetson Nano with Puppet Open Source version. I was able to install Puppet 6.3 by using `gem install puppet` by following https://gist.github.com/aaroncoffey/2459738bb9fb3d91f237455a4c577e9c This also installs facter, which is version 2.5.4. Facter 2.5.4 doesn't produce output in newer format. For example: networking.fqdn or os.hardware. Because of which multiple puppet forge modules such as adullact/freeipa and dp/golang fails. This might get solved by FACT-2270. Would appreciate if this could be resolved. Yours Sincerely, Vijay   Add Comment

Re: Incomplete Facter results on Raspberry Pi 4 with "gem install puppet" Hi Vijay, Facter 2 is not producing output in the newer format and there are no plans to add the newer format to it. On the other hand, Facter-ng (will be published as Facter 4 to Rubygems) does support both the old format and the new format. We're currently doing extensive testing for Facter 4 and assessing the impact. If you want to try out Puppet with Facter 4 you can add the following gem source: http://ec2-52-55-30-243.compute-1.amazonaws.com:9292/. This gem source has puppet version 6.12.0.47 (currently not a released version of Puppet) that comes with Facter 4.0.4. Please note that, as mentioned above, Facter 4 is still in development. Any feedback for Facter 4 is highly appreciated. Cheers, Mihai
