Does anyone have some examples of using this create_resources
function,https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-create_resources,
? Based on the README example I can't figure out exactly how to
change from using defines to using this function. Maybe I
misunderstand the purpose of create_resources...is it to replace
defines, or is it to allow ENCs (for example) to use a define?
The purpose of create resources is not to replace define, but rather
to declare resource from a hash. This is typically used to work around
ENC limitation of class only so you can provide a hash to generate
resources for a node.
Below is an example of a define I use for apache virtual hosts. From
the example on the functions readme, does class webserver::instances
use the information in $instances? So if I wanted to create files /
directories from the information in $instances, would that be done in
class webserver::instances or else where?
Here's the example...
node 'webserver' {
apache::vhost {
'drupal-multisite1':
domain = 'com',
docroot = '/var/www/example2.com/html',
options = 'None',
override = 'All',
protocol = 'http';
'drupal-multisite2':
domain = 'com',
docroot = '/var/www/example2.com/html',
create_docroot = false,
options = 'None',
override = 'All',
protocol = 'http';
}
}
So if you use create resource, instead of the section above would be:
$vhost = { 'drupal-multisite1' = { domain = 'com', ... } }
create_resource (apache::vhost, $vhost)
It would not change your existing define apache::vhost.
Thanks,

Having a bit of trouble now...and the error I'm getting is of no help.
Here's my parameter in node definition
$redmine_instances = {
'default' = {
docroot = '/var/www/rails/redmine',
db = 'redmine',
db_user = 'redmine',
db_pass = '',
},
}
create_resources('redmine::instance', $redmine_instances)
And the defines this is going to...
define redmine::instance (
$instances = {}
) {
file { $instances[docroot]:
ensure = directory,
owner = 'apache',
}
file {$instances[docroot]/config/database.yml:
content = production:
adapter: mysql
database: $instances[db]
host: localhost
username: $instances[db_user]
password: $instances[db_pass]
encoding: utf8
,
}
}
That's a trimmed down example, but the error I get is
