Roman Shaposhnik commented on BIGTOP-317:
-----------------------------------------
Sorry for the noise, but I can't seem to make flexible renames work with
Puppet. I need to 'phone a friend' at this point ;-)
Here's what I wanted to have:
class hadoop-zookeeper {
$client_name = "zookeeper"
define client {
package { $client_name:
ensure => latest,
}
}
....
that does NOT really work in puppet since apparently referencing variables
defined in the class works ONLY if the class itself has been included like this:
include hadoop-zookeeper
Obviously, we can't include ourselves, but we can include a class that is
defined inside of us. Which bring me to the following ugly code:
class hadoop-zookeeper {
class zookeeper {
$client_name
}
define client {
include zookeeper
package { $zookeeper::client_name:
ensure => latest,
}
}
Any suggestions on how to solve it better?
