Regex and Hyphen in node definitions

[Matt Shields]

I'm having an issue with trying to use regex with hostnames that have a hyphen in their name.  How can I get this to work?

node /^(.*)-(db00)(.*)$/ {

  include role::db

}

[root@ops-db001 ~]# puppet agent -t

Info: Retrieving plugin

Info: Loading facts

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Invalid tag '-db00.' on node ops-db001.example.dom

Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog

Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run

Which version of Puppet are you using? This problem sounds familiar and
may have be fixed in a more recent version of Puppet.

I'm running Puppet 3.7.4-1

I just updated to 3.8.4-1 and I'm still seeing the same issue

[Matt Shields]

If there are any other suggestions on how to regex the nodes, that would be extremely helpful.  We name our hosts like. 

{clientname}-{purpose}{001-999}

Ex.

ops-db001 -> uses db profile

ops-bidb001 -> uses bidb profile

ops-sdb001 -> uses sdb profile

ops-web001 -> uses web profile

client1-db001

client1-bidb001

client1-sdb001

client1-web001

Thanks

Is consider removing the ^ and $ anchors. I think I you'll find it works without them.

anything without - really, so \W would work in this particular case /^(.*)\W(db00)(.*)$/

[Matt Shields]

That didn't work.  Same error (Invalid tag)

[Matt Shields]

Excellent.  That works.  Thank you very much
