08/25/2022, 1:14 PMHey Bob. 😄 I don't have an answer, just saying Hi!

08/25/2022, 1:31 PMyou can use a variable as the result for run_command and then make decisions on what to do with the result. https://puppet.com/docs/bolt/latest/writing_plans.html#handling-plan-function-results

08/25/2022, 1:33 PM@tuxmea -- Yeah, I'm capturing the output in a variable, but the plaintext is still showing up.
Robert Vincent
08/25/2022, 1:36 PMI'm doing something like this:
$myvar = String(Binary(run_command('mycommand', $target).to_data[0]['value']['stdout'], '%s'))Robert Vincent
08/25/2022, 1:36 PMUnfortunately, the plaintext output of
mycommandt
tuxmea
08/25/2022, 1:37 PMIn this case you want to not use run_command, but run_task and add sensitive data as sensitive parameters. Within the task you can then build the plaintext command
tuxmea
08/25/2022, 1:38 PMwhat I understood: you want the command to not be shown in plan text?
tuxmea
08/25/2022, 1:38 PMor do you want to show the result not in plan text?
r
Robert Vincent
08/25/2022, 1:39 PMI want to pass the result to a task, and not show it in the run logs at all.
Robert Vincent
08/25/2022, 1:40 PMIt's not the text of
mycommandt
tuxmea
08/25/2022, 1:43 PMYou can try to pass the catch_error option to run_command. AFAIK this prevents the direct output as you want to deal with the data afterwards. https://puppet.com/docs/bolt/latest/plan_functions.html#run-command

Robert Vincent
08/25/2022, 2:17 PMDamn; didn't work.
