Hello all!

I'm hoping for your help on what I admit is a weird and uncommon
problem.

I'm working on a module that (among other things) creates a series of
home folders. The format of the home folders looks something like
this /filesys/home/#/letter/userid where # is a number between 0-15,
letter is the first letter of the userid.

Anyhow, I'm inserting a variable into the manifest something like
this: $folders = ["/filesys/", "/filesys/home", "/filesys/home/0", "/
filesys/home/0/x/xyz123", /filesys/home/1/a/abc123"] and etc


My problem is, I want to take that master variable and break it down
so puppet can do different things to different pieces. For example, I
was looking at making an if/else statement to take a regular
expression that would strip out a userid and make that the variable
puppet uses for the owner/group on each of the userid directories.
Else, the owner/group would be sys or whatever else.

I'm thinking of other stuff too, but my basic question is, does puppet
support using regular expressions in if/else statements like this or
am I really trying to get too crazy?

Thanks in advance for bearing with me!
