Evidently you have not understood the advice for which you are giving
thanks, because it was to NOT DO THAT. Instead, do this:
file { 'bar':
# initial uppercase name components:
require = A::Foo['baz']
}
Note there that
1. EACH name component in a resource reference must be capitalized (i.e.
both the 'A' and the 'Foo'), and
2. the name component separator is a double colon (::), not a single
colon.
In addition, the actual names of modules, classes, and resource types
should begin with *lowercase* letters, so that resource references (which
use capital letters) are distinguished from other uses of class and
resource names. Thus, you should not have any module named A; rather, it
should be named a. Your definitions should thus have the form
# initial lowercase letters:
define a::foo(...) {
#...
}
The autoloader will expect to find that definition in module
path/a/manifests/foo.pp, where in principle case matters, but in practice
that depends on the filesystem.

Re: [Puppet Users] require a defined type from another module
Hi,
be carefull when you include a module with the 'require' keyword instead
of 'include'
with require, the class becomes a dependency for everything that's in
that manifest.
See
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/2.7/reference/lang_classes.html#declaring-a-class-with-require
for the explanation.
Using require module generates quickly dependency loops.
Hope this helps

Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance.

[Puppet Users] require a defined type from another module
In module A:
define A::foo()
In module B:

require = A::foo['baz']
}
A::foo{baz:}
However puppet doesn't seem to like the syntax around
require=A::foo['baz'].
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Re: [Puppet Users] require a defined type from another module
Try A:Foo instead of A::foo.
