Hi all,
I'm trying to promote module re-use so that if I have a module that deals
with ldap and I have setup variables in a common configuration and I want to
access those same defaulted variables from another module I can easily do
so.
Below is how I'm *attempting* to do this and in MY opinion I think it should
work ;-) Puppet feels differently and in my node where I include the class
rep I get an error back from puppet saying that it could not find the value
for ldap_cname in my template.
I believe this should work because the rep module includes the config which
includes the ldap::variables_common which should then define $ldap_cname and
the file /etc/rep.xml requires ldap::variables_common before the template.
Can anybody kindly show me the error of my ways?
Thanks!
Chris
-- Examples Modules Below --
modules/ldap/manifests/init.pp:
class ldap {
variables_common
}
class ldap::variables_common {
if( !$ldap_cname) {
$ldap_cname="admin"
}
}
In file modules/rep/manifests/init.pp
class rep {
include config
}
class rep::config {
include ldap::variables_common
file {
"/etc/rep.xml":
ensure => file,
require => Class["ldap::variables_common"],
content => template("rep/test_template.xml.erb");
}
}
modules/rep/templates/test_template.xml.erb
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<test_template cname='<%= ldap_cname %> />
</configuration>
