Jira (PUP-3425) resource_type face search/find returns empty results

[Hector Sanjuan (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Hector Sanjuan created an issue   Puppet / PUP-3425 resource_type face search/find returns empty results Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 3.7.1, PUP 3.6.0 Assignee: Unassigned Created: 09/Oct/14 2:34 AM Environment: puppet gem in Linux with several ruby versions. Labels: faces resources integration indirector Priority: Normal Reporter: Hector Sanjuan Hi, Up until 3.6, something like: require 'puppet/face' Puppet::Face[:resource_type, '0.0.1'].search('*') would return a list of Resource::Type by parsing all the manifests found according to configuration settings. At some point this (along with find and possibly other indirector-provided functions) got broken, because the current_environment in Puppet @context is not set correctly to production, but to *root*, When using the CLI, there is a step in application.rb where the current environment is set from Puppet options, so the CLI still works, but when using the face directly it does not. As a workaround: configured_environment = Puppet.lookup(:environments).get('production') Puppet[:environment] = Puppet.push_context({:current_environment => configured_environment}) seems to work, but I am not sure it is the best way or why. What does '*root*' mean (it comes from puppet.rb/self.bootstrap_context()? Why it makes a difference with 'production' when $basemodulepath modules should be loaded regardless of the environment anyway? I found this was the only relevant difference when running puppet resource_type search '*' vs. running the Face from Ruby (despite having populated Puppet.settings with all the necessary stuff). Not sure if or how many other faces are affected (since a few use the class Indirector and reuse some of the involved code).
