Issue #7218 has been updated by Ken Barber.
So the kwalify work is here: <https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-kwalify> This provides a facility for validation using the kwalify JSON/structured data schema, which means we don't need to create our own. There are two methods for using it. The 'kwalify' function takes a hash (which is the kwalify schema) and you pass it the hash returned by get_scope_args which creates a hash of all class/resource parameters. The second methodology which is more intrusive is to use validate_resource which is more or less the same, but the schema sits alongside the class on the filesystem. So init.pp has a corresponding init.schema file (yaml) which has the kwalify schema stored in it. Is this roughly what you were after Trevor? The thread of discussion on this topic is here: <http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-dev/browse_frm/thread/66890e2e06f1f50b/e0639a4269c69b9f?q=kwalify+puppet#e0639a4269c69b9f> ---------------------------------------- Feature #7218: Integrated variable checking for defines and parameterized classes. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7218 Author: Trevor Vaughan Status: Needs More Information Priority: Low Assignee: Ken Barber Category: language Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: I would like the ability to, in the puppet language, check variables being passed to a class or define for validity. This can currently be done by throwing a ParseError from a template, but that is quite syntactically heavy. Current Case: <pre> define foo ( $bar ) { inline_template("<% if not ['true','false'].include?(bar) then raise Puppet::ParseError.new(\"$bar must be one of 'true', 'false'\")%>") } </pre> Desired Case: <pre> define foo ( $bar, $baz ) { validate { bar => ['true','false'], baz => '/fancy regex' } } </pre> Not critical, just would add some awesomeness. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
