Hi Dick, I saw an example of this in Edwin Shao's newly posted modules.
http://github.com/eshao/puppet/blob/master/manifests/macros.pp , look for the definition named itpl He is using a define to wrap if statements to select which template is used based on availability. He also wrote a custom function to check which template files exist on the server. This answers your question, but I am not sure if this is the best approach. Why cant you just create the .conf files in the classes that represent the applications? (ie: class app1 , manages the resource /etc/httpd/conf.d/app1.conf, etc..) Are you modifying httpd.conf based on the applications that are installed (or trying to modify a single file based on which classes are included?) regards, Dan On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 10:15 AM, Dick Davies <rasput...@hellooperator.net>wrote: > > If I use the source attribute to file, I can pass in a list of files > that will be searched until one matches. > > Is there a way to do something similar with templates? > > (Use case: I'm trying to make a generic apache module, but every > webserver we run is totally different, > so rather than make a single one size fits all template I'd like to be > able to pass a per-vhost template in). > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
