Hm, ok.
But when I use 'subscribe' instead of 'notify' 

class testmod {
   package { 'nginx': ensure  => installed }
   service { 'nginx':
    ensure    => running,
    enable    => true,
    require   => Package['nginx'],
    subscribe => File['/tmp/nginx.test']
   }
}
class testmod::nginxtest {
  file { '/tmp/nginx.test':
    ensure => present
  }
}

I get

==> test-node: Error: Could not apply complete catalog: Found 1 dependency 
cycle:
==> test-node: (File[/tmp/nginx.test] => Service[nginx] => Class[Testmod] => 
Class[Testmod::Nginxtest] => File[/tmp/nginx.test])
==> test-node: Try the '--graph' option and opening the resulting '.dot' file 
in OmniGraffle or GraphViz

I do need to have 2 separate modules. I need the class 'testmode' to run before 
class 'test mod::nginxtest'. And I need to restart service 'nginx' when I 
change '/tmp/nginx.test'.

So then the question is - how to do this properly? Do I need to create 
something like exec { 'nginx restart': ... } ?
