    yes

    it's a shitshow
  • v
    I'm still referring to the puppet 7 doc because it looks much nicer
  • n
    We're going to put up OpenVox docs soonish (I hope) that everyone can collaborate on and update, so hopefully the situation feels a bit better after that.

    i feel terrible that i haven't been able to spend any time on that. 😞

    NickB: nice

    how evil is "exec"?
  • v
    It Depends™
  • v
    it tends to. task at hand: get a gpg key into the system. copypasta source says: exec command wget .asc | gpg --thisandthat
  • v
    Tricky bit with doing that via exec would be idempotency. But, otherwise, not a bad use case unless there's a battle tested type and provider that does that specific job.

  • v
    sounds solid. if it was exec command wget rmrf.sh well ok
  • v
    bastelfreak: ?
  • v
    that's a puppet module to import gpg keys
  • v
    use that instead of an exec resource
  • v
    on forge yet?
  • v
    the module? yes. that branch? no
  • v
    I'll talk this over, but right now I'd like to get my hands dirty myself for sake of learning
  • v
    can someone do me a solid and glance over this if it has any obvious errors? https://paste.pics/f06d410b82eb4270e607f19999b3f802
  • v
    can paste in thext if anyone knows some lesser know pastebin, can't access the usual ones.
  • v
    regarding the gpg key file I was wondering if it it a good idea to "subscribe"  to changes in the .asc file, as I'd want to have that if MS issues a new one
  • v
    not offhand. Since it’s an image I can’t run it through parse tests or linters
  • c
    Why not use 
    puppetlabs/apt
    ? It has types and providers for most/all of that.
  • v
    Yes use the at module
  • v
    questy, firewall... hence the q for some other pastebin. would like to.
  • v
    csharpsteen, because I'm fresh off the bus and had no idea :)
  • v
    then modules here have a tendency to be outdated and for learning purposes I like to ge the bare low level code together
  • c
    Everything you did looks great, it's just that you ended up re-implementing a good chunk of the 
    apt
    module 😉
  • v
    I’m with Charlie. Just move to the apt module and save yourself some headaches.
  • v
    hey open src people have been, despite no short supply of contrary statements, reinventing wheels since the dawn of epoch ;)
