Interesting.. Three questions about this: 1. Could these variables be overridden by a node variable? I assume no. 2. What happens if the data file is missing? 3. Could their be optional and mandatory variables? This solves variables but does not solve the other issue I mention about files or templates that are custom per site install. > > I'm beginning to think that this, or a function a lot like this, > should be included directly into Puppet, and data should get loaded > automatically, rather than requiring the call to the 'load_data' > function. hmm is there cases were you wouldn't want the data to load? -L --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
