You can fairly easily extend a resource or type by wrapping it in a new one
of your own making. The concept is similar to inheritance in object
oriented languages, but the mechanism is a little less sleek.
I'm picking a resource with a small list of attributes to keep the example
simple, but you can do this with anything.
define my_notify (
$name => $title,
$message => undef,
$withpath => undef,
$my_notify_special,
){
# do custom things here
notify { $title:
name => $name,
message => $message,
withpath => $withpath,
}
# do more custom things here, maybe with $my_notify_special
}
