Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet Master and Custom Facts

Re: [Puppet Users] build version tag?

If you're using a control repo, you can change the catalog version number from seconds since epoch to git commit hash, which should allow you to reconstitute all the modules in use at that time if you pin all external modules in your Puppetfile (included would already be part of that hash). --

[Puppet Users] Re: [Puppet-dev] Re: Draft for new type and provider API

Overall I think this looks pretty good, but I have some questions and comments. For implementations that can't enumerate all existing resources (at least not in any fast way), like for example File, should they fine a get method that returns an empty hash, nil or just not define a get method? nil

[Puppet Users] Re: noob question about configuring modules via hiera's common.yaml instead of site.pp
