Following the example in the CommonMisconceptions I've done away with
the inherits "base_node" and have instead included the class base_node
and can now successfully pass my $site variable. However I can't seem
to include the variable in the "source" parameter for "file" type.
For now I'm using this:
file { "/etc/ntp.conf":
owner => root,
group => root,
mode => 0644,
source => $site ? {
"sj" => "puppet:///ntp/SJ/ntp.conf",
"to" => "puppet:///ntp/TO/ntp.conf",
"uk" => "puppet:///ntp/UK/ntp.conf",
"pg" => "puppet:///ntp/PG/ntp.conf",
default => "puppet:///ntp/ntp.conf",
},
notify => Service[ntpd],
require => Package["ntp"],
}
I was just hoping I could use this instead:
source => "puppet:///ntp/$site/ntp.conf"
