This module is officially curated and provided by Puppet Labs. The modules
Puppet Labs writes and distributes will make heavy use of this standard
library.
# Versions #
This module follows semver.org (v1.0.0) versioning guidelines. The standard
library module is released as part of [
Puppet
Enterprise
](
http://puppetlabs.com/puppet/puppet-enterprise/
) and as a result
older versions of Puppet Enterprise that Puppet Labs still supports will have
bugfix maintenance branches periodically "merged up" into master. The current
list of integration branches are:
*
v2.1.x (v2.1.1 released in PE 1.2, 1.2.1, 1.2.3, 1.2.4)
*
v2.2.x (Never released as part of PE, only to the Forge)
*
v2.3.x (Scheduled for next PE feature release)
*
master (mainline development branch)
The first Puppet Enterprise version including the stdlib module is Puppet
Enterprise 1.2.
# Compatibility #
## stdlib v2.1.x, v2.2.x ##
v2.1.x and v2.2.x of this module are designed to work with Puppet versions
2.6.x and 2.7.x. There are currently no plans for a Puppet 0.25 standard
library module.
## stdlib v2.3.x ##
While not yet released, the standard library may only work with Puppet 2.7.x.
# Functions #
Please see
`puppet doc -r function`
for documentation on each function. The
current list of functions is:
*
getvar
*
has\_key
*
loadyaml
*
merge.rb
*
validate\_array
*
validate\_bool
*
validate\_hash
*
validate\_re
*
validate\_string
## validate\_hash ##
$somehash = { 'one' => 'two' }
validate\_hash($somehash)
## getvar() ##
This function aims to look up variables in user-defined namespaces within
puppet. Note, if the namespace is a class, it should already be evaluated
before the function is used.
$namespace = 'site::data'
include "${namespace}"
$myvar = getvar("${namespace}::myvar")
