Hello readers,
I am wondering - I intend to create a few directory trees with the file{
[array] } pattern, but unfortunately Puppet complains. It says "File[]
is already declared in file ..."- which kind of looks like as if Puppet
takes a file object with an array as parameter as a single, unnamed File
object. I would assume this would be equivalent to
File{ array[0] : ... }
File{ array[1] : ... }
File{ array[2] : ... }
... etc. Unfortunately the directories should have different owners and
permissions, so I cannot merge those into a single file{} statement. Any
advice how I can achieve what I want without breaking this up into -
right now - six different file{} delarations?
You're description is not totally clear to me, but here's an example how
arrays should work:
$filesA = ["/tmp/A1", "/tmp/A2", "/tmp/A3" ]
$filesB = ["/tmp/B1", "/tmp/B2", "/tmp/B3" ]
file {
$filesA:
ensure => present,
mode => 0644, owner => root;
$filesB:
ensure => present,
mode => 0755, owner => "www-data";
}
If you're looking for something different you might want to look into
setting recurse=>true. Read the Type Reference for more info.
Best Regards, David
