[Puppet Users] what's the syntax for converting the yaml of facts into a hash table?
Hope I'm not being too thick about this but I'm having trouble creating a
Hash from my server's Facts.
I've tried the following:
facts = File.read( "#{puppetdir}/yaml/facts/#{certname}.yaml" )
factH = YAML.load( facts ) # fails
factH = YAML.load( facts ).to_hash # fails
It looks like the facts file is a yaml of a Puppet::Node::Facts but I can't
figure out how to access it's contents.
What's the proper syntax for extracting the Facts into a hash?

I can speak directly on this ! You want http://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/stdlib/3.2.0 This has the /etc/facter/facts.d/* Magic Pixie Dust in it. I just went thru a brief panic attack when I updated to Facter 1.7 and puppetlabs-stdlib 4.0.2 ! The changelog says "Remove facter_dot_d for compatibility with external facts” and I had to do some rapid searching and verifying that stuff put into /etc/facter/facts.d/* still worked. Short answer: They do !

[Puppet Users] Conditional based on whether package is part of the manifest
1. class myssl {
2.* ... code that puts certificate files in place *
3.
4.* if package https is installed {*
5. class {'apache::mod::ssl': }<- enables Apache's mod_ssl
6. }
7. }
In the module above, I'm setting up SSL certificates on a server, and I'd
like to to enable Apache's mod_ssl *only if* the manifest requires the
Apache package elsewhere. This is optional because some manifests may use
another web server. Is there a way to express a conditional in line 4 that
will test whether the httpd package is part of the manifest?
Thanks and in advance, and sorry for the newbie questions!

This one of the parts where node inheritance is really nasty and I
wouldn't use it. I would try to do it with classes, like:
class basenode::core {
$snmp_server = "10.0.0.10"
include snmpd
}
node 'myserver.domain.com' {
$snmp_password = "mypassword"
inherits basenode::core
}
Also I would try to do that with parametrized classes:
class basenode::core($snmp_password) {
class{'snmpd':
server => '10.0.0.10',
password => $snmp_password
}
}
node 'myserver.domain.com' {
class{'basenode::core':
snmp_password => "mypassword"
}
}
you might also want to look into hiera, which can give you additional
options on how to structure that.
