puppetrun with noop or similar functionality

[alcy]

Hi,

I wanted to have my puppet client daemons running in the noop=true
mode, and changes could be triggered centrally through puppetrun --
noop false. Also it would be nice in an inverse situation, when client
daemons are running in the default (noop = false) mode and before
testing out a new(small,immediate?) module/feature/code, puppetrun
could be run with noop=true mode to test out the changes first. But
the noop option is not supported with puppetrun. So, before submitting
a possible feature request for 2.6.1 (there exists an old one,
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/864) just wanted to have
thoughts of the community, whether they need this, are implementing in
a different manner, etc.

Any suggestions, folks ?

Ugh, never mind the nick/name.

So, one way I can think of doing is to put the puppet client's controlling module, in a run stage that's executed before main, which will restart puppet and toggle the noop value.

Argh. But puppet client daemon will be running in the noop mode, so none of this will work. My bad.
