Sure thing, here you are:
## Usage:## artifacts()## Returns:## Puppet hash containing
artifact info.## @author N David Brownmodule Puppet::Parser::Functions
newfunction(:artifacts, :type => :rvalue) do |args|
# Info common to all artifacts.
_common = {
'pkg' => 'tar.gz',
'ver' => '7.1.0.fuse-041',
'repo' =>
'http://maven/nexus/content/groups/fusesource-features-group'
}
# Bespoke info for artifacts.
_artifacts = {
'fabric' => {
'id' => 'fuse-fabric',
'grp' => 'org.fusesource.fabric'
}.merge!(_common), # merge in common artifact info
'fmc' => {
'id' => 'fmc-distro',
'grp' => 'org.fusesource.fmc'
}.merge!(_common) # merge in common artifact info
}
return _artifacts
endend
Earlier I was pointing out that moving _common and _artifacts above the
module... line means they can't be accessed by the new function definition.
I thought that might work to make them accessible from a require in a
standard Ruby file, having seen require be used at that scope in example
Puppet custom functions in the official documentation.
Cheers,
Dave
