Hi All,
Is there anyone who has written a custom function calling powershell that
returns a value?
The case we are trying to use the puppet module *scheduled_task *and it
works really well!
The problem is that we don't want to declare our password in the
declaration so we would like to set username and password with a task
performed after the task is registered.
Everything works almost fine except for when we set the user and password ,
the next runtime the scheduled_task resource will change back to system
since nothing is declared.
So everything runs everytime puppet agent runs.
We would like to a custom functions that checks if the scheduled_task is
created and runing under proper user. If that is the case we dont ned to
run *scheduled_task *resource.
So in pseudo code something like this:
$result = sheduledtaskexists("MyMagicTask")
unless $result
scheduled_task { 'MyMagicTask':
ensure => present,
enabled => true,
command => 'd:\Scheduled_Tasks\MyMagicTask.bat',
trigger => {
schedule => daily,
every => 1, # Defaults to 1
start_date => '2011-08-31', # Defaults to 'today'
start_time => '03:00', # Must be specified
}
}
end
module Puppet::Parser::Functions
newfunction(:sheduledtaskexists, :type => :rvalue) do |args|
argument =args[0].to_s() # "MyMagicTask"
cmd = 'C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
-NoProfile -NonInteractive -NoLogo -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command .
d:\\tools\\check_task_exist.ps1; Task-Exists argument' #should be repla
value = %x[ #{cmd} ].to_s().chomp
result = value
end
end
Powershell snippet... not proper code..
function Task-Exists([string]$taskname)
{
[Boolean]$isFound = $false
[xml]$tasks = schtasks /query /TN $taskname /XML
if($tasks)
{
$isFound = $true
}
$isFound
}
Has someone done something like this?
