Hi,
I have been struggling with arrays in puppet in combination with
Augeas. I have written a define to configure network interfaces on
Debian based distributions using Augeas. One of the requirements is
the possibility to use the up/down mechanism.
This where I run into a snag. Everything works fine until I try to
setup more than than one up rule. First some code examples of the
define:
-- Node Configuration --
networking::managed_interface { 'eth1':
int => 'eth1',
ipaddr => '192.168.1.123',
netmask => '255.255.255.0',
up => 'route add -net 172.16.1.0/24 gw
192.168.1.1'
}
-- networking::managed_interface (only the up segment) --
if $up != '' {
augeas{ "up-${device}" :
context => '/files/etc/network/interfaces',
changes => [
"set iface[. = '${device}']/up[. = '${up}' ] \"${up}
\"",
],
}
}
So this works fine but I would like to be able to add multiple up
rules. I was thinking about passing multiple rules as an array:
up => ['route add -net 172.16.1.0/24 gw 192.168.3.1', 'route
add -net 192.168.12.0/24 gw 192.168.3.1']
And use some kind of for/while loop in Puppet to iterate over the
array but to my surprise Puppet has no way of doing this... I searched
the documentation, google and the google-group but there seems to be
no way of iterating over an array or even get the size of an array.
So now I am kind of stuck. I could write a separate define for the up
rules but I would rather have this within the define for interfaces.
I am probably not the first to have run into this and I am curious as
how others have solved this "problem"
Regards,
Adrian.
