Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet Parse Trees (for a lint checker)
An alternative is to use the Geppetto tool which parses puppet manifests into a model. There is a Java API for this model. It can also be serialized in other formats that allow processing in other languages. I am interested in what "lint rules" you had in mind, maybe we could collaborate to get them into geppetto?

Is there some extra-verbosity mode I can enable that will spit out the AST in yaml or pson or something? Your quotation of my request for a pre-existing easily-modifiable lint checker suggests that you mean that the --parseonly mode has some mechanism for specifying linter rules. Is there some way I can warn against particular syntactically-valid yet undesirable patterns of use via --parseonly? I would need to be able to specify these patterns myself. -- Schrödinger's cat was an observer. WAKE UP, SHEEPLE!

[Puppet Users] Puppet Parse Trees (for a lint checker)
I mean to write a lint checker for my manifests, but I am not a ruby developer to any degree of proficiency. What I think I would like is some kind of serialization of the AST for a given .pp file, which I can then import into my own Python code and analyze for undesirable patterns. Is there any way to get a dump or serialization or marshalling of the parse tree for a given .pp file? Or is there already some easily-modifiable lint checker elsewhere? -- A: No. Q: Should I put my reply above quoted text? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
