Sorry to derail this discussion, but R.I., what is it that you find bad about create_resources? I've found it invaluable when creating resources from definitions. For example, I have an apache::conf definition for a config file, and I create a hash for each config file I want created on the node. Then just use "create_resources(apache::conf, $apache_conf_hash)" in the module's init.pp. How would you do it otherwise? Documentation on Hiera is pretty lacking right now, and it's the best method I've found for this sort of thing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
