Regex for case statements

[teja...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I'm stuck at this point while adding a case statement regex for hostname's macthing...

Here is my sample code I'm working on...

class clearlogs::components::idm {

        case $::hostname {

                'idm-wc-(\d+)p': {

                                file { "/etc/cron.d/idm.sh":

                                        ensure    => present,

                                        mode      => '0755',

                                        owner     => 'root',

                                        group     => 'root',

                                        content   => template('clearlogs/idm.erb'),

                                }

                                cron { 'clearinglogs':

                                        command   => 'sh /etc/cron.d/idm.sh',

                                        user      => 'root',

                                        weekday   => [Monday, Wednesday, Saturday],

                                        hour      => '01',

                                        minute    => '00',

                                        require   => File['/etc/cron.d/idm.sh'],

                                }

                }

        }

}

This code simply does copying of script and running cron job for my hostnames say idm-wc-1p, idm-wc-2p, idm-wc-3p, idm-wc-4p, idm-wc-5p.

So please correct me where i'm doing wrong. It's not working for me....And I'm using puppet open source(3.7.8) without future parser.

Thanks for the help!

https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/3.8/lang_conditional.html#syntax-2

needs to be between slashes, /idm-wc-(\d+)p/: {}

If you have regex problems, I find http://rubular.com/ fairly useful for
testing.
