puppetlabs-stdlib

[Douglas Garstang]

I'm confused about this...

https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib/

I see a lot of functions there that are the same as the ones that come
standard with puppet. If I create a module and dump this stuff in
there, what happens to the existing stuff? How does puppet know which
one to use?

That's odd.  I don't see anything in there that comes standard with Puppet.  Would you care to give some examples?  Maybe I'm just missing the obvious.

Really? From the function reference at:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/function.html

Common ones seem to be create_resources, crit, defined, err,
extlookup, fail, file .... and so on.

none of the ones you mentioned are also in stdlib:

Hi,

For some reason these are in README.markdown, perhaps a copy-paste mistake. Look inside the directory :)

Ah this was my fault. I thought I filtered out the function
documentation for core functions but I clearly didn't.

Ah, that explains it.  Silly me, I ignored the README and went straight to the actual sources :)

I've fixed up the README, the function list in the doc is accurate for the 3.0.0 release of stdlib.

Hope this helps,

Cool. thanks for fixing.

Would it be possible to get the 2.x branches of stdlib  updated as well as the forge entry.  They still don't reflect the actual contents of the module.

Thanks!
