Put in $your_module_name/lib/puppet/parser/functions/am_running_oss.rb
module Puppet::Parser::Functions
newfunction(:am_running_oss, :type => :rvalue ) do |args|
#inFile = "/tmp/OSs.txt"
inFile = args[0]
gos = {}
if File.exist?(inFile)
open(inFile, 'r').each do |line|
next if line =~ /^\s*(#|$)/
parts = line.split(',').map(&:strip)
case parts[1]
when /^Mac/
(gos[:mac] ||= []) << parts[0]
#gos['1']
when /_Win$/
(gos[:win] ||= []) << parts[0]
else
(gos[:linux] ||= []) << parts[0]
end
end
end
if gos.count >= 1
return gos.keys.join(',')
else
return 'undefined'
end
end
end
And from your module:
$q=am_running_oss("/tmp/OSs.txt")
notify {"XXXXXXXX ${q}":}
Also, you could skip the parameter and just hard coded in the file.
