Here's the problem: how to instruct puppet to generate a customized
file with the interpreted<username> variable, and how to tell puppet
to place this file in /home/<username>?
Ideally, the file should be created only at first login to avoid
existing bookmarks to be overwritten...
The problem is not very clear to me. Do you just try to manage a file with a
variable in it's path name?
Given that the target username is already present as a variable in the
manifest, you'd just write:
file {
"/home/${username}/path/to/file":
content => template("path/to/template")
}
given that the template makes use of the $username variable too. If you need
the same procedure for more than one user, wrap the whole thing into a define.
Add 'replace => false' to make this a one-shot operation.
Did I get the problem right? Did I miss something?
Regards
Christian
