So, I've been playing with this myself.
Seems the second class you try and declare always throws an error,
which isn't so useful.
Consider this trivial manifest:
# Namespace example
class my::funclass($message1, $message2="I'm the default") {
notify { "greeting":
message => "message1=[${message1}] message2=[${message2}]";
}
}
class { "my::funclass":
message1 => "Hello world",
message2 => "I'm NOT the default";
}
puppet apply will return the following (good) output:
notice: message1=[Hello world] message2=[I'm NOT the default]
notice: /Stage[main]/My::Funclass/Notify[greeting]/message: defined
'message' as 'message1=[Hello world] message2=[I'm NOT the default]'
Now, if you add a second class and declare it, it won't work... I
just appended to the file:
class another($color) {
notify { "color": message => "Color is [${color}]" }
}
class { "another": color => "green" }
And I get this back:
Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Invalid
resource type class at
/Users/jeff/plabs/puppet-samples/manifests/paramclass_twoclass.pp:15
on node danu.local
Line 15 is where class { "another": color => "green" } is declared.
If you swap the two classes, the error happens on the second declaration again.
So... congrats, you're right, parameterized classes appear to be
rather broken in 2.6.0 and 2.6.1rc1.
Doug, would you mind filing this issue along with the information I've
discovered? If so, I'll go ahead and do it for you.
Thanks,
