Issue #7516 has been updated by Rob Terhaar.
If the inventory API allowed a return_format argument, that would be really useful. For example, if I query: <pre> https://127.0.0.1:8140/production/facts_search/search?facts.ec2_instance_type=m1.small&facts.puppetversion=2.7.6 </pre> I then have to parse that output, and make several more requests for each server to find the IP of each node. The inventory service is fast! But having to make multiple queries for each node is less than ideal. However, if I could set a return type with multiple facts, that would save me the hassle of making multiple requests. <pre> https://127.0.0.1:8140/production/facts_search/search?facts.ec2_instance_type=m1.small&facts.puppetversion=2.7.6&return=hostname,ipaddress </pre> ---------------------------------------- Feature #7516: `facts_search` inventory api should return more information, including the search predicate https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7516 Author: Nick Fagerlund Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Daniel Pittman Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: The current inventory API returns only a list of nodes, with no information about any node in that set. This makes evaluating the results of the search very difficult. (You searched for all nodes whose OS isn't CentOS? Well, what ARE their OSes? No way to tell other than loading the complete facts set for all however-many-dozen nodes.)
