You should use 'lib' instead of 'plugins' for 0.25.x clients. Otherwise that's exactly how I have things laid out. On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 4:24 PM, Allan Marcus wrote: > hello, > > Is this directory structure for modules still recommended, or is there a > better way? > > http://projects.reduct

if a template exists in modules/foo/templates/bar.erb you refer to it as template("foo/bar.erb") in manifests. On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 10:12 AM, Allan Marcus wrote: > I am confused about the template dir in the module/{modulename}/ dir > > Does the autoloader look in /env1/modules/{modulena
