This is the wrong place. Ruby based facts should be put into "lib/facter/" 
inside a module, see https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/7/custom_facts.html.

Re: [Puppet Users] Create a variable out of a bash command and notify it

[Nir Fishler]

@Martin,

I have tried your approach; I put the facter file underneath:
/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/facter/custom_facts/core/execution/

*file:*
username.rb

*content:*
*# username.rb*

*Facter.add(:username) do*
*  setcode do*
*Facter::Core::Execution.execute("/usr/bin/hostname |/usr/bin/awk -F'-' 
{'print $1'}")*
*  end*
*end*

But I keep getting an error:
Error: Evaluation Error: Empty string title at 0. Title strings must have a 
length greater than zero. (line: 1, column: 8) on node 
puppet-master.domain.com

what am I missing here?

The puppetlabs-apt module from the Puppet Forge has various facts for this.

Re: [Puppet Users] Create a variable out of a bash command and notify it

[Martin Alfke]

Hi Nir,

You want to collect information on nodes and you want to use this information 
in a catalog.
This is what facter is used for. 

/lib/facter/upgradable_packages.rb
Facter.add(:upgradable_packages) do
  setcode do
Facter::Core::Execution.execute("/usr/bin/apt --simulate upgrade | grep 
'^Inst' | awk -F ' ' '{print $2}'")
  end
end

Within your puppet code you can then refer to the fact:

notify { $upgradable_packages: }

Hth,
Martin

[Puppet Users] Create a variable out of a bash command and notify it

[Nir Fishler]

Hello,

I'd like to store an output of a bash command into a variable, and then 
print it to stdout using notify in Puppet.

Main goal: get a list of upgrade-able packages and notify the user about it.

I have tried the below but it doesn't seem to work:

$pkgs_list = $("/usr/bin/apt --simulate upgrade | grep '^Inst' | awk -F ' ' 
'{print $2}'")

notify { "STDOUT: ${pkgs_list}": }
