Nearly. The problem you'll run into is that, since there are no loop
iterators in the puppet DSL (why, oh why, still?) you end up not being
able to do something like:
virt_host { $array: user => $hash[$name] }
(where $name is the array entry, and you can dynamically pluck it out of
the hash as you go). That would be nice, but no.
You'll have to do something like pass the associative array to the
define, and in the define pull back the values to be used in the
template based on the key $name. Something like:
define vhostvirt($data) {
$user = $data[$name]
$docroot = $data[$name]
file { "/tmp/${name}":
#content => template("apache/vhost.conf.erb"),
owner => 'root',
group => 'root',
mode => '777',
ensure => present,
}
}
That should be enough to get you going.
Good luck,
