Issue #1411 has been updated by lludwig.
The use case for this is puppet can be used to replace shell scripts. People who want to use puppet, yet don't want to setup all of the options needed to use puppet features (ie puppetd & puppetmaster) Passing command line options give some flexibility to recipes that puppetd/puppetmaster can set might be able to set in the 'node' which couldn't be used with just puppet. ---------------------------------------- Feature #1411: puppet command line options for running recipes http://reductivelabs.com/redmine/issues/show/1411 Author: lludwig Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: Target version: Keywords: Complexity: Unknown Patch: None Affected version: 0.24.4 I propose that puppet (not puppetd or puppetmaster) allows command line options to set variables within the recipe. IE. <pre> % puppet --var1=foo --var2=bar </pre> Which then is accessible within the recipe: <pre> case $var1 { "foo": .... } package { "$var2": ensure => installed, } </pre> Any reserved options (ie --help --debug, etc.) cannot be used. ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
