New to puppet and I just don't understand how to do this. Apologies in
advance if it's a dumb question.

Let's say I have a module called httpd and inside that is a class
called  httpd::service, which accepts a couple of parameters:

class httpd::service (
   $running      = 'running',
   $enabled      = 'true',
) {
  service { "httpd":
   path      => "/etc/init.d/httpd",
   ensure    => $running,
   enable    => $enabled,
   require   => [ Package[ "httpd" ], File[ "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" ] ],
   subscribe => File[ "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" ],
  }
}

But let's say that I want to allow the option of both requiring and
subscribing to a second file -- any file -- in addition to httpd.conf.
If I were doing this in a procedural language, I'd probably do
something naive and create a couple of empty parameters called
$also_subscribed and $myfile_path, use a conditional to see if it's
defined, then create the arguments to require and subscribe based on
that.

I cannot figure out how to get this done in puppet. Any help is
appreciated, even a link to an appropriate doc or example. Thanks!
