Maybe I'm asking for too much, but is the same thing achievable when
calling a definition? I've tried with $name but it takes the value of
the parent element.
Basically what I'd like to do is :
node 'myvmhost' {
createvm { [ 'vm01', 'vm02', 'vm03', 'vm04', 'vm05' ]:
# VNC Port 59XY for vmXY
vncport => regsubst($name, 'vm', '59'),
}
}
For two reasons :
* This prevents from iterating many identical calls to the definition
* The definition is in a generic module for which it does not make
sense to default the parameter to this calculated value.
With $name I get the 'myvmhost' string using puppet 2.6.9, but I'd like
to have access to the 'vmXY' string instead. Is that possible?
