Title: Message Title Branan Riley commented on FACT-1895 Re: Executable and Structured data facts in .txt format to allow Boolean conversion As far as changing how we parse key=value, I think we'd probably consider that a breaking change - the types of facts are sort of part of the "API" with puppet manifests, and changing those types can break compiles Add Comment This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.

Title: Message Title Branan Riley commented on FACT-1895 Re: Executable and Structured data facts in .txt format to allow Boolean conversion JSON and YAML formatting are already supported in executable facts (see FACT-1356 and FACT-1653). We have a ticket to update the documentation to reflect that. It ended up in the release notes, but fell through the cracks for updating the main documentation. FACT-1876 tracks us making explicit in the docs how executable facts work when outputting structured data.

Title: Message Title Martin Ewings created an issue Facter / FACT-1895 Executable and Structured data facts in .txt format to allow Boolean conversion Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2018/11/27 5:23 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Martin Ewings When interpreting a fact in a key Value pair either in a .txt file or in the return from an executable fact, see example: key1=true key2=false key3=true Currently this data type interprets only as a String. "true" and "false" are not identified as being boolean values, as they would in a JSON or YAML Structured data facts The request would be to either, allow for the interpretation of the key value pairs as boolean or to allow JSON or YAML formatted returns from Executable facts
