Ah! Sorry, I forgot the syntax is incoherent with the other ways that shell
commands are invoked. We actually use this to get the IP:
$dns_ip = generate('/usr/bin/ruby', '-e', "require 'socket'; print
IPSocket.getaddress('${fqdn}')")
...so, you should be good with:
$rules = generate('/.../get-rules-for', $fqdn, $name)
Sorry for the wasted time. I wish those interfaces all worked the same,
predictable, way in puppet. One day, one day...
