I'm no expert by far, but since I have been doing a lot of reading lately
for an issue I am trying to resolve, would it make sense to do a define
block for this? Looking at
https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.9/lang_defined_types.html it seems this
*may* work for you with some tweaking / testing. *I'm not sure I have all
of the syntax right*.
something of the order below might work.
define profile::ma ($envfile = "", $envsource = "") {
if $envfile == "" {
$envtarget = '/tmp/filename.sh'
} else {
$envtarget = $envfile
}
if $envsource == "" {
$env_path = "files/filenames.sh"
}
else {
$env_path = $envsource
}
file { $envtarget:
ensure => 'present',
replace => 'no',
source => "puppet:///module/${env_path}",
mode => '0755',
notify => Exec['install']
}
exec {'install':
command => "${envtarget} -i",
onlyif => '/usr/bin/test ! -e /etc/filetocheck',
}
}
** Note there isn't any handling of "filetocheck" in this snippet, but you
can add it.
In your code block for the file you would have something like:
class env_a ($env_file = "/tmp/filename.sh",
$env_source = "files/env_a_file.sh"
){
profile::ma{ 'profilea':
envfile => $env_file,
envsource => $env_source,
}
}
class env_b ($env_file = "/tmp/filename.sh",
$env_source = "files/env_b_file.sh"
){
profile::ma{ 'profilea':
envfile => $env_file,
envsource => $env_source,
}
}
I put in smart parameters for the settings since I use foreman and find I
will sometimes need to override a setting value from time to time when
something breaks and I need a fix before being able to get the new code
through change control.
Now I haven't tested it but it does follow from the linked example above it
appears that it *should* work. There probably also a way to dynamically
setup the settings based on the defined environment, but that is beyond me
right now.
