    which puppet then cannot interpret correctly
  • j
    is there any way to get puppet to correctly parse the array of strings? or not have hiera stringify the values?
  • v
    I personally don't see an appeal to have this data in hiera, this is code, it should be in manifest, imho
  • j
    the thing I am trying to do, is that the list of required classes will be changing based on which node the exec is accompaning. As in for node A the list of classses might be 'mm::common', but for node B it could be 'mm::common, mm::api'

    so i could pass the data from elsewhere (from the node) instead of hiera, but the goal is to not have a static list.

    Should just be able to plop an array of names into 
    Class[$array_of_names]
  • j
    ok, thanks @tvaughan worth a try
  • b
    Copy code
    mm::drs::trigger_jenkins::trigger_jenkins_require:
 - ...
lookup_options:
  mm::drs::trigger_jenkins::trigger_jenkins_require:
    convert_to: Resource
  • j
    ahh, that looks intersting
  • b
    for resource references in hiera, you need to convert them. I'm not sure if 
    Resource
    is the correct datatype here, but I think so
  • j
    @bastelfreak thanks, going to try that as well

    so 'Resource' doesnt appear to work:
    Copy code
    Creation of new instance of type 'Resource' is not supported
  • b
    maybe 
    Type[Resource]
  • h
    The Resource datatype does not implement “new”. Can log a ticket for it.

    Type[Resource] would make sense if instances of the datatype were actually resource lnstances, but they are not - they are just references to them.
  • h
    Also IIRC, you can just pass that directly into the require as it should support an array of names to require.
  • j
    I am assigning a hash to a hiera key. I would like one of the keys inside of that hash to be a 
    Sensitive[String]
    . Is there any way to coerce the type? `lookup_options`/`convert_to` does not appear to match keys in data (not surprising).
  • j
    Trying to convert the key to Sensitive results in 
    expects a value of type Undef or Sensitive[Hash], got Struct

    Is it possible to escape inside a function call? 
    %
    didn't work and 
    \
    causes an error 
    found unknown escape character .(46) while scanning a double-quoted scalar at line
