Samir, are you aware of the slack.puppet.com website?  It is free and you
can chat/IM with people real-time about your code.  That's the first thing.

Secondly are you aware of the Puppet.com pages for code writing?  Check
this page: https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.9/lang_conditional.html or this
page -
https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.9/lang_conditional.html#if-statements

Change the version drop-down box to match your Puppet Server version?

Also, are you aware of the builtin Puppet facts that you can use?  You
mentioned that you are using $env variable "from?" hostname, there is a
facter (fact) for hostname; are you aware of that?

I too am relatively newbie, but I am getting better with every new and
challenging module I write.

Finally, what error are you getting when you use this module?  Copy/paste
the output as the result of *puppet parser validate *
*/path/to/your/module/manifest/init.pp*  (or whatever your .PP file is
called).
