| Puppet Version: 7.0.0
Puppet Server Version: 6.14.1
OS Name/Version: Ubuntu 16.04 Hi!
- Sorry for the ugly issue title
- this might be better as a facter issue, but I'm not sure
I've the following fact:
Facter.add('sach_passalgo') do |
confine :osfamily => 'RedHat' |
confine { Facter::Core::Execution.which('authconfig') } |
|
setcode do |
authconfig_out = `authconfig --test` |
hash_algo = 'unknown' |
authconfig_out.each_line do |line| |
hash_algo = line.split(' ')[4] if line.include? 'password hashing' |
end |
hash_algo |
end |
end
|
I assume that this fact never exists on a Ubuntu/Debian system, because the fact is confined to osfamily RedHat. I expect `undef` as return value if I try to access this fact on a Debian node. This seems to be correct for Puppet 6:
notify { "test${facts['sach_passalgo']}":} |
|
$var = $facts['sach_passalgo'] ? { |
undef => 'works', |
default => $facts['sach_passalgo'], |
} |
|
notify { "test1{$var}":}
|
this produces on puppet 6.14.0:
root@* ~ # puppet apply test.pp |
Notice: Compiled catalog for * in environment production in 0.02 seconds |
Notice: test |
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[test]/message: defined 'message' as 'test' |
Notice: works |
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[test1works]/message: defined 'message' as 'test1works' |
Notice: Applied catalog in 0.27 seconds |
root@* ~ #
|
now with puppet 7:
root@* ~ # puppet apply test.pp |
Notice: Compiled catalog for * in environment production in 0.04 seconds |
Notice: test |
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[test]/message: defined 'message' as 'test' |
Notice: test1 |
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[test1]/message: defined 'message' as 'test1' |
Notice: Applied catalog in 0.21 seconds |
root@* ~ #
|
now I update the test code like this:
notify { "test${facts['sach_passalgo']}":} |
|
$var = $facts['sach_passalgo'] ? { |
'' => 'empty string', |
undef => 'undef', |
default => $facts['sach_passalgo'], |
} |
|
notify { $var:}
|
which produces the following output on puppet 7:
root@* ~ # puppet apply test.pp |
Notice: Compiled catalog for * in environment production in 0.05 seconds |
Notice: test |
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[test]/message: defined 'message' as 'test' |
Notice: empty string |
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[empty string]/message: defined 'message' as 'empty string' |
Notice: Applied catalog in 0.28 seconds |
root@* ~ #
|
A fact that was undef on Puppet 6 turned into empty string in Puppet 7? Actual Behavior:
expect that the fact is still undef let me know if you need more debugging/testing or any information. |
