Jira (FACT-3138) SPIKE - Add Block Groups to GCE Facts
Title: Message Title Aria Li commented on FACT-3138 Re: SPIKE - Add Block Groups to GCE Facts Hello! Just an update on what Josh Cooper and I are planning on doing. We will be modifying the pre-existing fact blocking mechanism on Facter so users can block specific fact values from facts with structured data, like gce, which uses a hash for its values. Specifically, this will be done using the block list which will match a value in the fact's value hash and filter it out. For now, we will not be focusing on dynamic facts like network.interfaces.docker0 and instead we will focus on implementing this for static facts. If you're curious about the work we've done already, feel free to check out this link!

Title: Message Title Josh Cooper commented on FACT-3138 Re: SPIKE - Add Block Groups to GCE Facts Paired with Aria Li on this and the way facter works currently is the block list determines which facts should not be collected. But if a single fact like "gce" returns structured data, then the block list does not filter the data. The reason this works for other structured facts (for example, you can block "memory.swap" while allowing "memory.system") is because swap is an independent fact, which just happens to be "mounted" at that point in the fact tree. That said, I think it would be possible to apply the block list to whatever structured data we collect. We probably want to filter that data before it is cached as well. Note there are some existing bugs around facter block lists being slow (FACT-2916, FACT-2954, FACT-3080) so we'll need to be mindful of that.

SPIKE - Add Block Groups to GCE Facts

Lisa Ross
SPIKE to capture investigation on: * Does Facter already support this? * Is it possible to create a new block list of GCE? +Description of bug original ticket FACT-3126 +Currently, GCE facts in Facter are all lumped into one big fact group from a blocklist standpoint. From facter --list-block-groups{{GCE}}{{- gce}}This is problematic, as the data it pulls in is pretty wide ranging. Specifically, I'm experiencing an issue at work where one GCE project has a large number of SSH keys. These keys all get pulled into the GCE fact (gce.instance.project.attributes.ssh-keys) resulting in puppet complaining about a fact being larger than the maximum size (fortunately, this is a soft error at the moment). Since we don't actually use that fact, we would like to be able to disable it, as it just wastes resources (it is also not really a fact about the machine really, but I digress). Sadly, since GCE facts are currently all-or-nothing, we cannot blocklist it because we do use other GCE facts pretty widely.
