virtual resources & spaceship syntax

[Brett Maton]

I'm probably missing something really simple here, but I can't get the following to work:

node 'puppet-slave.test.net' {

  include users::accounts

  User <| title="account" |>

}

Any suggestions welcomed :)

Modules:

modules/users/manifests/virtual.pp 

class users::virtual {

  define account ( $uid, 

                   $gid = '', 

                   $home = '',

                   $groups = '',

                   $realName = '',

                   $pass = '',

                   $shell = '/bin/bash',

                   $sshkey = '') {

    $userGroup = $gid ? {

                   ''      => $uid,

                   default => $gid,

                 }

    $homeDir = $home ? {

                 ''      => "/home/${title}",

                 default => $home,

               }

    $comment = $realName ? {

                 ''      => $title,

                 default => $realName,

               }

  #  Create User Group

    group { $title:

      ensure => 'present',

      gid    => $userGroup,

    }

  #  Create User Account

    user { $title:

      ensure     => 'present',

      uid        => $uid,

      gid        => $userGroup,

      shell      => $shell,

      home       => $homeDir,

      comment    => $comment,

      password   => $pass,

      groups     => $groups,

      managehome => 'true',

    }

    #  Add SSH Key if defined.

    if ( $sshkey != '' ) {

      ssh_authorized_key { $title:

        ensure  => 'present',

        type    => 'ssh-rsa',

        key     => "${sshkey}",

        user    => "${title}",

        require => User[ "${title}" ],

        name    => "${title}",

      }

    }

  }

}

modules/users/manifests/accounts.pp 

class users::accounts {

  include users::virtual

  # Brett Maton

  @users::virtual::account { 

    'account':

      uid      => '1001',

      realName => 'account',

      groups   => 'wheel',

      sshkey   => [ Key Data ];

    'account2':

      uid      => '1002',

      realName => 'Second Account',

      groups   => 'wheel',

      sshkey   => [ Key Data ]

  }

}

It’s supposed to be a comparison, not an assignment, so
title == 'account'

Best regards

Thanks for looking Henk,

  I think my email client replaced == with =, it is using the comparison op in the actual code....

Your virtual resource is not a "user", but a define called "users::virtual::account".
So you need to realize it using:

Users::Virtual::Account <| title == "account" |>

Kind regards,

:D

  I knew it would be something simple,  thanks Kristof that's working now.
