I'm evaluating the community edition:
community> Cfengine - 3.1.4 Copyright (C) Cfengine AS 2008,2010-
I have a module that defines a variable:
community> Defined variable: dns_domain in context pup.pl with value:
lifelogs.com
But I can't access it later. Here's the config file I ran directly with
cf-agent:
body common control
{
bundlesequence => { "g", "pup", "test" };
inputs => { "cfengine_stdlib.cf" };
}
bundle common g
{
vars:
"myroot" string => "/home/tzlatanov";
}
bundle agent pup
{
commands:
# define all the pup.pl stuff in cfmodule format
"$(g.myroot)/pup.pl" args => "--cfmodule -db server_machines.txt", module =>
"true", contain => in_dir($(g.myroot));
}
bundle agent test
{
commands:
"/bin/echo $(pup.pl.dns_domain)";
}
The output of pup.pl includes "=dns_domain=lifelogs.com" which triggers
the log message above, but I can't access that string using
${pup.pl.dns_domain} or $(pup.pl.dns_domain). I only get their literal
value:
-> Executing '/bin/echo $(pup.pl.dns_domain)'
...(timeout=-678,owner=-1,group=-1)
Q: ".../bin/echo $(pup": $(pup.pl.dns_domain)
I: Last 1 quoted lines were generated by promiser "/bin/echo
$(pup.pl.dns_domain)"
-> Completed execution of /bin/echo $(pup.pl.dns_domain)
The manual doesn't have an example, only a lateral mention that
module-defined variables are in a special context. Is there a minimal
example of accessing variables in the module context I can see?
Thanks
Ted
