I would parameterize a bundle with the package name, e.g.
body classes context_sensitive(x)
# Define a class from a prefix x concatenated with the outcome of the promise
{
promise_repaired => { "$(x)_repaired" };
promise_kept => { "$(x)_kept" };
repair_failed => { "$(x)_failed" };
repair_denied => { "$(x)_denied" };
repair_timeout => { "$(x)_timeout" };
}
bundle agent my_package_add_or_delete(service, pkg)
{
# just an example using Redhat
redhat::
"$(pkg)"
package_policy => "add",
package_method => yum_rpm,
classes => context_sensitive("$(service)_package_add");
reports:
"bundle_my_package_add_or_delete: The package for service $(service) was
installed by cfengine"
ifvarclass => "$(service)_package_add_repaired";
}
I hope that's what you were looking for...
