Puppet / PUP-10985 `puppet facts diff` does not output facts that only exist in Facter 4

Issue Type: Task Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2021/03/25 12:07 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Nick Walker The Problem Given the following facts Given the following facts:   cat /opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/foo.bar.txt foo.bar=true cat /opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/c.d.json { "c.d": { "foo": 4 } } cat /opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/bar.json { "bar": { "e.f": 5 } } cat /opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/a.b.txt a.b=3 you'll get output from `puppet facts diff` like this: [root@master20198-latest-centos ~]# puppet facts diff | python -m json.tool { "a.b": { "new_value": null, "old_value": "3" }, "c.d.foo": { "new_value": null, "old_value": 4 }, "foo.bar": { "new_value": null, "old_value": "true" }, ... } which does not show that there are new facts "a", "c" and "foo" in Facter 4. Suggested Solution ideally we show these new facts with the new_value set and the old_value as null.

Change By: Luchian Nemes Release Notes: Enhancement Release Notes Summary: The `puppet facts diff` CLI command was improved by showing all differences between Facter 3 and Facter 4 (including facts available only in Facter 4), sorting output results in alphabetical order for better human readability, allowing users to remove certain facts from output (via the `--exclude <regex>` CLI option) and including a CLI option to see results in a fully structured form.

Re: `puppet facts diff` does not output facts that only exist in Facter 4 Luchian Nemes should this also have PUP 7.6.0 as a fix version?
