I am using puppet 4.3 and it looks like the new function lookup provider
is not working, unless i am missing something.
I am working from this:
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lookup_quick_module.html
I am just testing with this simple example.
% puppet status
{
"is_alive": true,
"version": "4.3.2"
}
% tree
.
├── data
│ └── common.yaml
├── functions
│ └── data.pp
├── hiera.yaml
├── manifests
│ └── init.pp
├── metadata.jason
└── templates
└── vartmp.erb
#==================================
% cat functions/data.pp
function vartmp::data() {
$base_params = {
'vartmp::localerb' => 'vartmp/vartmp.erb',
'vartmp::vtfile' => '/var/tmp/VAR-TMP-FILE',
}
$base_params
}
#==================================
% cat manifests/init.pp
# Class : vartmp
#
class vartmp (
$vtfile,
$localerb
) {
file { $vtfile:
owner => 'root',
group => 'root',
mode => '0644',
content => template($localerb),
}
}
#==================================
% egrep data metadata.jason
"data_provider": "function"
#==================================
This looks odd.The rest of your layout looks like it is for an
environment. An environment does not have a metadata.json that is only
for modules. For an environment you need to specify the data_provider in
environment.conf and set it to 'function'. It will then call the
function named 'environment::data()'.
If you are intstead doing this for a module, the name of the function
should be in the module's namespace e.g. 'mymodule::data()'.
Does that help?
Since the data functions are just regular functions you can test by
calling them directly - e.g:
puppet apply -e 'notice environment::data()'
puppet apply -e 'notice mymodule::data()'
You can also use 'puppet lookup' command line tool with '--explain' to
get detailed trace information about what is going on.
There are bugs in 4.3 though, but the basic use cases should work.
There are many fixes in the upcoming puppet 4.4.0 for lookup/data binding.

puppet-lint and pupper parser validate both return clean.

On client.

}
% puppet agent -t

Anybody know/see what i am missing?
Thanks
