In C (and other) programming languages, locally-scoped blocks are useful for overriding some behavior in a small area of a source code file, as seen here: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Introduction_to_Programming_Languages/Scoping_with_Blocks 
The Puppet DSL does not appear to suppose this construct, and I thought it might be useful for something like this: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
class myclass { 
 
 
 
 
  # Class-scope resource default

In a recent Puppet Fundamentals class, a student noted that UNIX man pages often include an example of the command, file format or whatever is documented. He asked for an enhancement to the output of "puppet describe" to show the same thing. 
I checked a couple of resources (package, file), and they both include examples of usage, but they are interleaved with the attribute descriptions. Is it possible to build another field into the output of the command so an optional example could be displayed at the top?

A PSE in the field reports that running native Facter on Windows spikes the CPU for a few seconds on each run. The --timing option previously available in facter is no longer present in native facter, making it difficult to determine where the problem is. 
Restoring the --timing option would make it easier to debug this problem.

I would be interested to know if it's possible to add a callback mechanism to the types & providers framework so a provider can supply progress information to Puppet during "puppet apply" runs. 
Some providers may call long-running commands, such as curl on a large download file, and where possible, it would be an improved user experience to see how much time the operation will take. I expect this would be most useful during "puppet apply" and perhaps "puppet agent -t" running in the foreground. 
I envision a possible implementation using a callback mechanism. If supplied by a particular T&P, Puppet could query its progress percentage callback and report back to the user in realtime. Of course, the T&P would need to be able to extract this information from the underlying command or perhaps supply an estimate based on a calculation of some kind. 
Feedback and criticism of this idea are welcome!

 The customer (Richard Lawson @ Merrill Corp) sent this follow-up email with the details of his configuration: noformat Here’s a follow-up to our Slack discussion last week. Here is a shortened example. We have very long URI's that look like this: /subscriptions/123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890/my_vnet_name/providers/Microsoft.Network/routeTables/directinternet I decided to shorten that a little. The long string after subscriptions is the subscription ID, and it is passed as a custom fact called azure_subscription_id. And since we're only managing resource group-based resources, I wanted to make the URI's a little easier to read by creating this abbreviation in the init.pp: subid = "/subscriptions/${azure_subscription_id}/resourceGroups" So that would turn the above URI into: "% {subid}/my_vnet_name/Microsoft.Network/routeTables/directinternet"Which seemed a little more readable to me.The documentation seemed to support setting up local scope variables in init.pp and passing them to hiera. So I tried it. Here was the hiera I set up. It is considerably condensed.

Puppet failed evaluating $sub_id. I then commented out the line in init.pp where I defined subid. Next I went into the PE console set up a variable underneath the classification node group called "subid" with the value "/subscriptions/${azure_subscription_id}/resourceGroups". That worked fine and produced no errors and applied the proper values. So I'm not certain exactly how the local scope includes variables set in the classification node group on the PE Console and not variables set in init.pp. Let me know if you need any more info. I'm willing to give a live demonstration of this. Richard Lawson Cloud Services Engineer Merrill Corporation 221 North 1st Street Suite 370 Minneapolis, MN 55401 richard.l

 Henrik Lindberg - Just added the contents of the email I received from the customer.  From what I can see, the APL for mrll_azure::subscription occurs as the class parameter list is evaluated. At that point in time, the "subid" variable has not been assigned, so I'm assuming that's why it cannot be referenced in the Hiera data unless there is some provision for lazy evaluation. But it sounds like from his experience, that's not the case. Can you confirm that for me when you have a chance? If what I'm thinking is true, then maybe a small documentation update could include some verbiage that says referenced local variables have to be defined at the time the Hiera lookup occurs.

I'm not sure this if this is bug or not, but I wanted to get some feedback on a small test case that I wrote while researching Puppet variable data types. I have a `params.pp` and `init.pp` class as follows: 


params.pp

 
class vartest::params  

Unknown macro: { String $param1 = 'teststring' } 
 

 


init.pp

Thank you very much for the thorough explanation, Henrik Lindberg! I missed this key portion of the documentation where the use cases for data types are listed: https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_data_type.html#usage
