This is interesting, what is the name of your fact?
I replied on a forked thread, puppet-users was not included, here my
response:
[root@gnucloud facter]# echo $FACTERLIB
[root@gnucloud facter]# export
FACTERLIB=/opt/puppet/test/modules/foobar/lib/facter
[root@gnucloud facter]# echo $FACTERLIB
/opt/puppet/test/modules/foobar/lib/facter
[root@gnucloud facter]# facter -p foo
[root@gnucloud facter]# pwd
/opt/puppet/test/modules/foobar/lib/facter
[root@gnucloud facter]# ls
foobar.rb
[root@gnucloud facter]# cat foobar.rb
require 'facter'
Facter.add("foo") do
setcode do
%x{/bin/date +%s}.chomp
end
end
Facter.add("bar") do
setcode do
%x{/bin/date +%s}.chomp
end
end
My *guess* is that facter does not like having two facts in one fact, here I
simply created another fact:
[root@gnucloud facter]# cat onefact.rb
require 'facter'
Facter.add("onefact") do
setcode do
%x{/bin/date +%s}.chomp
end
end
[root@gnucloud facter]# facter -p onefact
1302309123
Working without issues..
Doing another test, this time I just renamed the file with the fact:
[root@gnucloud facter]# mv onefact.rb onefact2.rb
[root@gnucloud facter]# facter -p onefact
[root@gnucloud facter]# facter -p onefact2
[root@gnucloud facter]#
aha!, seems like facter is looking for the fact name that matches the file,
woot! is this ok? is this the expected behavior?
Then somehow my assumption was correct, facter is not able to pick facts
that the name of the file differs from the fact defined, anyway puppet
processes them correctly.
