Testing Puppet dsl functions

[Alessandro Franceschi]

Hi all,

I've started with some excitement to play with functions written in Puppet DSL, very simple things for the moment that do their work as expected: 

https://github.com/example42/puppet-tp/commit/d6973233bea27661fc91b475de16f3d0bbc9690c

still I'm having issues with Travis and rspec Travis tests:

https://github.com/example42/puppet-tp/pull/15

I'm getting errors when checking manifests syntax with rake validate (they do not appear with a puppet parser validate).

A full output is pasted below or available here: https://travis-ci.org/example42/puppet-tp/builds/109317800

Any hint or link to relevant info?

Thank you

al

Known issue with puppet parser validate command PUP-5895 for which there
is a PR open right now.

Will be fixed in Puppet 4.4.0.
