I just had to set the environment variable in the puppet.conf file before
starting the puppetd daemon. Then in each class I use that variable to
determine what happens, for example
file { "smtpd.conf":
owner => root,
group => root,
mode => 600,
source => $environment ? {
preproduction => "puppet:///....",
test => "....",
production => "....",
},
}
or in other classes, I have if/else blocks based on the $environment variable.
I am in the 0.24.8 version that EPEL has though, not 0.25.x
