Approved!

@ewoud - I’ll be doing a lot of puppet work and some other sysadmin and SRE work

ah, back in the field

Yuuuuup

may i have a review pls? https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-catalog-diff-viewer/pull/43

Module is tested works fine for me.

@Alex Fisher do you have a fond memory of catalog_diff and file resourced with Deferred() as content?

that's represented as a class/object in the catalog and not as string and catalog_diff doesn't like that 😞

here it yells it cannot run md5sum on a class

I can’t remember that coming up… Which version of puppet?

Not with node encrypt and deferred strings anyway.

7.24

and I got the catalog from curling the puppetserver

I don't know if that represents it differently

catalog_diff supports a hash at that place, maybe it's normally represented as a hash but now it isn't 🤔

ah the catalog_diff transforms the json to pson

test

ha, fixed the bridge

so to update irc about latest slack messages: I've a weird issue with catalog_diff where it finds a Deferred function but expects a string: https://gist.github.com/bastelfreak/fce82e7f8242781adccac313e56d0006 . I'm open for ideas :)

something seems to be really odd here

if I do the curl and save it to a file (without piping through jq) and then try

PSON.parse()

like in https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-catalog_diff/blob/master/lib/puppet/catalog-diff/compilecatalog.rb#L113 I also get an error

The

/puppet/v4/catalog

API is the modern way to get catalogs compiled outside of a

puppet agent

run: https://www.puppet.com/docs/puppet/7/server/puppet-api/v4/catalog.html That's what CD4PE Impact Analysis uses.

yeah, but that works a bit differently

we use that in catalog_diff

@csharpsteen while you're here! ideas why a node stops printing debug output during the catalog loading while doing

Adding autorequire relationship

? Output freezes and it eats up all available memory. we talked about a similar behaviour in the past that was caused by two file resources with recurse => true. That's not the case at the moment. I've 200 nodes, all with 5 file resources that have recurse => true, but for different paths. and only 5 nodes have this out of memory problem. Any idea how I could debug this? Pe 2021/puppet agent 7.24

I can reproduce that when I order a profile

which makes little sense to me
