09/13/2022, 1:58 PMwhat is the correct way to do an evaluation of two variables with one true and one false, sort of if $var1 and !$var2 - m
matt

matt
09/13/2022, 1:58 PMI'm reading the lang_expressions guide in puppet and not shows as ! - m
matt
09/13/2022, 1:59 PMhence !var2 - t
tvaughan
09/13/2022, 1:59 PMAh, yeah, I always forget - t
tvaughan

09/13/2022, 2:14 PMThis is a really dumb question, but when I’m creating the specific variable type for a pass-thru parameter to be used with package, is it just String? The specials for
,latest
, andpresent
throw me off.absent - y

09/13/2022, 2:21 PMhah, lolsob. stdblib uses a function. My memory is bad today. https://forge.puppet.com/modules/puppetlabs/stdlib/reference#ensure_packages However, you can always use
if you want to constrain the available options. String probably works, too.Enum['latest', 'present', 'absent'] - y

09/13/2022, 2:25 PMI guess they’re technically “bare strings” from the documentation. - m
matt
09/13/2022, 2:38 PMdamn it, one of my vars is not a bool, can you do if ($var1 and $var != 'thing') - m
matt
09/13/2022, 2:38 PMso it evaluates a bool and a string - m
