    I am trying to remove a user from a group. The user get added to the group if an object in hieradata is not null. I would like to trigger user removal from the group if the hieradata is null. Another done anything like this? The addition code look like 
    $css_users = hiera('css_users', {})
    $css_groups = ['wheel']
    }
    keys($css_users).each |$this_user| {
    if !empty($css_users[$this_user][yubikey]) {
    #notify { "${this_user} made it in the if defined block": }
    $css_groups = ['wheel', 'yubikeyusers']
    }
    #notify {"value of css_groups ${this_user}: ${css_groups}": }
    @user { $this_user:
    ensure           => present,
    password         => "${css_users[$this_user][password]}",
    comment          => "${css_users[$this_user][comment]}",
    managehome       => true,
    groups           => $css_groups,
    shell            => '/bin/bash',
    password_max_age => '-1',
    }
    }
    keys($css_users).each |$this_user| {
    User <|title == $this_user |>
    }
    }

    I don’t completely grok what you’re solving for here, but a real good way to think about configuration management is to stop thinking in terms of actions and start thinking in terms of state. In other words, do not write code to add or remove the group, instead figure out how to generate a consistent list of the groups you expect the user to be a member of and then let Puppet figure out what to add or remove.

    Can anybody tell if https://github.com/attachmentgenie/attachmentgenie-grafana_agent is an actively maintained repo? Puppet doc: https://forge.puppet.com/modules/attachmentgenie/grafana_agent There isn't much reference on usage either.

    Question: I created a class to create a default user see below:
    Copy code
    class profile::some_user(
String $my_variable= 'some_string'
)
{
  user { $my_variable:
    ensure     => present,
    forcelocal => true,
    gid        => 'some_gid',
    groups     => 'some_group',
    home       => "/${my_variable}",
    managehome => true,
    notify     => Selinux::Exec_restorecon["/${my_variable}"],
    uid        => 'some_uid',
  }
}
    ) and then used the function 
    ensure_resources(my_user_class, $my_variable)
    within another class in the same module

    I think you want 
    "/${my_variable}"
  • d
    then I removed the 
    ensure_resources()
    withing the where it was called and did this instead 
    include class profile::some_user
    but still complained about the same issue, what is the cause

    since 
    ensure_resources()
    need a hash, I define 
    Hash $my_variable
    within Profile:Some Class:Client( 
    Hash $my_variable
    )

    Sorry, not really familiar with 
    ensure_resource
  • d
    Ohh okay then I have a module and two classes I want to call class A in class B how would I be able to do that?
  • d
    or how can I clear my 
    site.pp file
