Title: Message Title

Markus Zilch created an issue   Puppet / PUP-11894 Namespacing ruby providers and types Issue Type: New Feature Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2023/06/13 6:13 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Markus Zilch Currently (as far as I know), providers and their corresponding types are not namespaceable. This could result in clashing definitions if two modules provide the same type via ruby (not sure). Either way, for consistency with classes and resource definitions, types and providers should be namespaceable too. Instead of: Puppet::Type.type(:package) and resulting usage: package {"namevar":} The namespaced versions could look something like this: Puppet::Type.type(:module::package) and usage: module::package{"namevar":} Should this already be possible (and I missed this during my tests), then amending the documentation would be much appreciated Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.21#820021-sha1:38274c8) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
