Overriding variables

[Bas van der Vlies]

I am using the new template functionality in 3.3.0 and using a default set of variables and can override them. But my set of variables are list and strings. For strings it is easy but what about lists?

{{{
body common control
{
bundlesequence => { "test" };

inputs => { "cfengine_stdlib.cf" };
}

bundle agent template(params)
{
    vars:
        any::
            # An array of configuration parameters used in template files
            #
            "cfg[ldap_servers]"      slist   => { "cua.irc.sara.nl", 
"ldap.cua.sara.nl" },
                policy => "overridable";

            "cfg[ldap_base]"        string  => "dc=hpcv,dc=sara,dc=nl",
                policy => "overridable";
            "cfg[ldap_user]"        string  => "ou=Users,dc=hpcv,dc=sara,dc=nl";
            "cfg[ldap_group]"       string  => 
"ou=Groups,dc=hpcv,dc=sara,dc=nl";
            "cfg[ldap_netgroup]"    string  => 
"ou-Netgroups,dc=hpcv,dc=sara,dc=nl";
            "cfg[cacert_file]"      string  => 
"/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt";


            # Copy configuration parameters passed, into a local array
            "param_keys" slist => getindices("$(params)");
            "cfg[$(param_keys)]" string => "$($(params)[$(param_keys)])",
                policy => "overridable";

    reports:
        debian::
            "bas params array $(param_keys)";
            "bas string $(cfg[ldap_base])";
            "bas string $(cfg[ldap_user])";
            "bas list $(cfg[ldap_servers])";
}


bundle agent test
{

vars:
    any::
        "varray[ldap_servers]"  slist =>  { "A", "B", "C" };
        "varray[ldap_base]"  string =>  "jaap";

methods:

    "template"  usebundle => template("test.varray");
}

Here is an example of what i am trying to accomplish. cfg[ldap_servers] is a slist and want to override the default value. In my real world i have more slists variables.
