Composite namevars for custom Type

[Len]

Jan 23

To all,

I am on puppet 2.7.3 and I'm working on a custom RabbitMQ type, that will use composite namevar.  I did not see any work out there already for managing rabbitMQ bindings so I've started on one and I'm running into problems with the composite namevar. I have a very basic type ( below ) but when I run the puppet as an agent I still get the error "Error 400 on SERVER: Could not render to pson: you must specify title patterns when there are two or more key attributes"

Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

#Puppet Manifest: 

  rabbitmq_binding { 'testing':

    source      => "src",

    destination => "dest",

  }

# Puppet Type

Puppet::Type.newtype(:rabbitmq_binding) do

  desc 'rabbitmq_binding creates a puppet type for managing rabbitMQ binding'

  def self.title_patterns

    [ [

        /^(.*):(.*)$/,          # pattern to parse <source>:<destination>

        [

          [:source, lambda{|x| x} ],

          [:destination, lambda{|x| x} ]

        ] ]

    ]

  end

  newparam( :source ) do  

    isnamevar

  end

  newparam( :destination ) do

    isnamevar

  end

end

John,

Thanks for the link. What I think is happening, is that I am not overloading the title_patterns function/method correctly. I've followed some other examples I came across, including the one in the link. But it does not seem to be picking up the def self.title_patterns from the custom type. And I'm still learning ruby and the inner workings of puppet.

Len,

I tried out your code, and it looks good (the resource in the puppet manifest doesn't conform to the title pattern format, which causes a different error, but the title_patterns method itself is being recognized). I'd try restarting the puppetmaster. I've found this to be necessary when making changes to types.

Eric,

Thanks that addressed it. I should have tried that. :} 

Thanks again
