I don't think this is actually fixable without some significant internal refactoring, or going back to having all facts loaded all the time. The problem is that the load-by-name in Facter relies on facts actually being stored in a file with the same name as the fact. So, it would expect a file named 'ipaddress_eth0' to exist for this to work, which of course isn't very reasonable given that it's a dynamic fact. If anyone can come up with a reasonable way to handle this -- loading facts by name on demand but also loading facts whose names are automatically determined -- I'm all ears, but as it is, I don't think we'll get this fixed any time soon. ---------------------------------------- Bug #1365: ipaddress_* facts don't work when called directly on the CLI http://reductivelabs.com/redmine/issues/show/1365 Author: Fujin Status: Needs design decision Priority: Low Assigned to: Category: library Target version: Keywords: ipaddress Complexity: Hard Patch: None Calling ipaddress_* directly from the CLI appears broken, in; <pre> [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ git log -n 1 commit b574c6a7f8c596e98bfab7ca48e172eb38fe23fa Author: James Turnbull <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon Jun 9 02:37:30 2008 +1000 Refactered ipmess.rb and util/ip.rb to support separate *BSD logic for *BSD </pre> <pre> [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter|grep ipaddress ipaddress => 123.100.70.1 ipaddress_eth0 => 123.100.70.1 ipaddress_eth0_0 => 123.100.70.2 ipaddress_eth0_1 => 123.100.70.3 ipaddress_eth0_2 => 123.100.70.4 ipaddress_eth0_3 => 123.100.70.5 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter ipaddress 123.100.70.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter ipaddress_eth0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter ipaddress_eth0_0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter ipaddress_eth0_1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter ipaddress_eth0_2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (branch: master) ~/git/facter$ facter ipaddress_eth0_3 </pre> ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
