Aleksey,
Thank you for the quick response.
My main objective is to make the contents of /tmp/test.txt into a class.
Hence, I would like to do the reporting.
bundle agent animal
{
reports:
DOG::
"I have a pet dog.";
}
Regards,
j

How's this?
[cfengine00 ~]# cat /tmp/test.txt
DOG
[cfengine00 ~]# cat test.cf
body common control {
bundlesequence => { "animal" };
}
bundle common g
{
vars:
"temp" string => readfile("/tmp/test.txt", "4" );
}
bundle agent animal
{
commands: "/bin/echo $(g.temp)";
commands:
"/bin/echo I have a pet dog."
ifvarclass => "$(g.temp)";
}
[cfengine00 ~]# cf-agent -f ./test.cf
Q: ".../bin/echo DOG": DOG
I: Last 1 quoted lines were generated by promiser "/bin/echo DOG"
[cfengine00 ~]#
Note the use of ifvarclass attribute to use a variable as a class; and
the full name of the variable (including the bundle name) in g.temp.
CFEngine bundles have scope, so you have to use the full name to call
a variable from another bundle (even a global variable).
Yours,
