    I'm happy that I'm only running into (mainly) Ubuntu issues (rarely Debian). Maybe I should switch back to Gentoo (or maybe Arch?).
  • b
    yes!
  • b
    as an Arch Linux maintainer I support that movr

    ewoud: do you know how I can write an rspec-puppet test for a defined resource that validates the uniqueness? Basically having two instances of the defined resource at the same time
  • b
    @Alex Fisher ^ maybe you've an idea as well
  • v
    bastelfreak: no, not sure and kind of busy now so no time to think about it either
  • a
    Morning all
  • a
    Not sure I understand the question. How could you have non unique resources in the first place?
  • b
    let's say a defined resource defines a file resource with a static name
  • b
    having one instance of that defined will work, a second will fail
  • b
    now how do I test this in a unit test
  • a
    Maybe a precondition that declares another instance?
  • b
    good idea
  • a
    or some modules have wrapper classes for creating multiple instances of a type, and you could test it there instead.
  • b
    ah!
  • b
    yes
  • b
    I will do that instead, thanks
  • b
    (we're hacking multiinstance support into puppetlabs/postgresql)

  • a
    But I wouldn't necessarily create such a class just for this purpose.
  • b
    in our case an additonal parameter in the init.pp is probably fine
  • k
    why do so many people merge master into their PR branch ughhhhhhhhh 😛
  • b
    because github has a 'sync fork' button
    yup 1
  • k
    oh.
  • b
    and an 'update branch' button I think which does a rebase as well
  • b
    eh, which does a merge, not a rebase
  • b
    and people start with github without learning git before and when I say 'please rebase' they don't relly know what I'm talking about 😞
