Issue #3764 has been updated by Luke Kanies.

Why wouldn't you just fail during the compile?

Is there really some value to the failure happening on the client instead of 
the server?

Feature #3764: Add "fail" parameter to notify resource
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3764

Author: Alan Barrett
Status: Needs design decision
Priority: Normal

Category: functions
Target version: 
Affected version: 0.25.4

Branch: 


I often want a puppet manifest to result in an error on the client.  This is 
useful for marking "to do" items, where users should be reminded of 
shortcomings in the manifest.

I have added a "fail" parameter to the notify resource.  Usage is as follows:

<pre>
notify { "Feature X is not yet implemented":
    fail => true,
}
</pre>

I attach a patch to implement this feature, but I have not added test cases.

It would be nice to have "onlyif" and "unless" parameters, but I have not 
implemented those.
