Hey Folks!
We are officially shipping a gem for Facter 3.11.0! There is both a source
and a set of precompiled gems available for installation.
We understand that migrating from Facter 2 to Facter 3 is not a small task.
As such we have decided to ship Facter 3 technically as a ‘pre-release’
gem. The version of the official release of facter 3.11.0 will be:
facter-3.11.0.cfacter.20180319
Note that this means in order to make use of facter 3.11 in your gemfile or
gemspec you will need to specify the version all the way down to ‘.cfacter’:
gem facter, ‘~> 3.11.0.cfacter’
Using ‘--pre’ with rubygems will pull down the latest facter 3 gem for you:
gem install facter --pre
We are shipping the first facter 3 gems as ‘pre-releases’ to allow users
(and ourselves) some time to use the new gem and find out what and where we
need to improve the gem before moving it to a standard release. We fully
plan on shipping Facter 3 as a standard release gem in the near future, but
we would like users to try out the pre-release gem first and gather some
feedback.
Currently, the first iteration of the facter 3 gem does not include the
facter binary, and is missing EC2 support. For this release we are focused
on learning about incompatibilities in module testing.
Please download the new Facter 3 gem and try it out! We would love your
feedback
