Using Ruby puppet db library - syntax question

[JonY]

I'm hoping to use this library (or something similar) to request a single fact from all nodes. The equiv curl request would be 'curl -X GET http://host:8080/v3/facts --data-urlencode 'query=["=","name","fs_space"]'.

I've been looking at the docs on 'https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetdb-ruby' but I can't seem to get the syntax correct for this type of request. Suggestions?

It'll look like this:

response = client.request(

  'facts',

  [:'=', 'name', 'fs_space']

)

nodes = response.data 

The response data will be an array of hashes - each hash containing the node's "certname" and the "name" and "value" of its fact.

Tried that - got this error:
