Issue #3933 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.
I can imagine myself wanting this both client and server side.
How about a metaparameter:
<pre>
foo_type { "my_foo":
...
exitonfail => true,
}
</pre>
and a command line switch that effectively sets this on all resources:
<pre>
puppetd --exitonfail
</pre>
I quite like 'failonfail' too, but feel that it's not as appropriate for the
metaparameter. We could name them differently... but that could lead to
confusion.
I would argue that if you're scheduling puppetd with --test you're Doing It
Wrong.
test == +onetime+, +verbose+, +ignorecache, +no-daemonize+, and
+no-usecacheonfailure+.
If you're scheduling puppetd, you should use:
--onetime --no-daemonize
but not the others. Well maybe verbose if you want verbose logs, but that would
be about it. That being said, I'm not entirely convinced that --test should
imply --exitonfail
"exitonfail" doesn't feel right as a name for puppetd in daemon mode though...

Feature #3933: Option to make Puppet fail as soon as a resource fails.

I think I might have filed this before on the old trac system, but I can't find
it.
Basically I'd like the equivalent of bash "set -e" on Puppet client runs. When
you're debugging weird transient failures, it would be a lot faster if you
could just make puppetd die as soon as a resource failed.
