Public Class Methods

app_defaults_for_run_mode(run_mode) click to toggle source

This method is intended for puppet internal use only; it is a convenience method that returns reasonable application default settings values for a given run_mode.

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 32
def self.app_defaults_for_run_mode(run_mode)
  {
      :name     => run_mode.to_s,
      :run_mode => run_mode.name,
      :confdir  => run_mode.conf_dir,
      :vardir   => run_mode.var_dir,
      :rundir   => run_mode.run_dir,
      :logdir   => run_mode.log_dir,
  }
end
clean_opt(opt, val) click to toggle source

A utility method (public, is used by application.rb and perhaps elsewhere) that munges a command-line option string into the format that Puppet.settings expects. (This mostly has to deal with handling the “no-” prefix on flag/boolean options).

@param [String] opt the command line option that we are munging @param [String, TrueClass, FalseClass] the value for the setting (as determined by the OptionParser)

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 226
def self.clean_opt(opt, val)
  # rewrite --[no-]option to --no-option if that's what was given
  if opt =~ /\[no-\]/ and !val
    opt = opt.gsub(/\[no-\]/,'no-')
  end
  # otherwise remove the [no-] prefix to not confuse everybody
  opt = opt.gsub(/\[no-\]/, '')
  [opt, val]
end

Public Instance Methods

[](param) click to toggle source

Retrieve a config value

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 96
def [](param)
  value(param)
end
[]=(param, value) click to toggle source

Set a config value. This doesn’t set the defaults, it sets the value itself.

def []=(param, value)
  set_value(param, value, :memory)
end
addargs(options) click to toggle source

Generate the list of valid arguments, in a format that GetoptLong can understand, and add them to the passed option list.

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 107
def addargs(options)
  # Add all of the config parameters as valid options.
  self.each { |name, setting|
    setting.getopt_args.each { |args| options << args }
  }

def app_defaults_initialized?
  @app_defaults_initialized
end
boolean?(param) click to toggle source

Is our parameter a boolean parameter?

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 128
def boolean?(param)
  param = param.to_sym
  @config.include?(param) and @config[param].kind_of?(BooleanSetting)
end
clear() click to toggle source

Remove all set values, potentially skipping cli values.

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 134
def clear
  @sync.synchronize do
    unsafe_clear
  end
end
clearused() click to toggle source

This is mostly just used for testing.

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 160
def clearused
  @cache.clear
  @used = []
end
convert(value, environment = nil) click to toggle source

Do variable interpolation on the value.

# File lib/puppet/settings.rb, line 273
def convert(value, environment = nil)
  return nil if value.nil?
  return value unless value.is_a? String
  newval = value.gsub(/\$(\w+)|\$\{(\w+)\}/) do |value|
    varname = $2 || $1
    if varname == "environment" and environment
      environment

    elsif pval = self.value(varname, environment)
      pval
    else
      raise InterpolationError, "Could not find value for #{value}"
    end
  end

  newval
end
define_settings(section, defs) click to toggle source

Define a group of settings.

@param [Symbol] section a symbol to use for grouping multiple settings together into a conceptual unit. This value

(and the conceptual separation) is not used very often; the main place where it will have a potential impact
is when code calls Settings#use method.  See docs on that method for further details, but basically that method
just attempts to do any preparation that may be necessary before code attempts to leverage the value of a particular
setting.  This has the most impact for file/directory settings, where #use will attempt to "ensure" those
files / directories.

@param [Hash] defs the settings to be defined. This argument is a hash of hashes; each key should be a symbol,

which is basically the name of the setting that you are defining.  The value should be another hash that specifies
the parameters for the particular setting.  Legal values include:
 [:default] => required; this is a string value that will be used as a default value for a setting if no other
    value is specified (via cli, config file, etc.)  This string may include "variables", demarcated with $ or ${},
    which will be interpolated with values of other settings.
 [:desc] => required; a description of the setting, used in documentation / help generation
 [:type] => not required, but highly encouraged!  This specifies the data type that the setting represents.  If
    you do not specify it, it will default to "string".  Legal values include:
    :string - A generic string setting
    :boolean - A boolean setting; values are expected to be "true" or "false"
    :file - A (single) file path; puppet may attempt to create this file depending on how the settings are used.  This type
        also supports additional options such as "mode", "owner", "group"
    :directory - A (single) directory path; puppet may attempt to create this file depending on how the settings are used.  This type
        also supports additional options such as "mode", "owner", "group"
    :path - This is intended to be used for settings whose value can contain multiple directory paths, respresented
        as strings separated by the system path separator (e.g. system path, module path, etc.).
  [:mode] => an (optional) octal value to be used as the permissions/mode for :file and :directory settings
  [:owner] => optional owner username/uid for :file and :directory settings
  [:group] => optional group name/gid for :file and :directory settings

  def to_config
    str = %Q{The configuration file for #{Puppet.run_mode.name}.  Note that this file
is likely to have unused configuration parameters in it; any parameter that's
valid anywhere in Puppet can be in any config file, even if it's not used.

Every section can specify three special parameters: owner, group, and mode.
These parameters affect the required permissions of any files specified after
their specification.  Puppet will sometimes use these parameters to check its
own configured state, so they can be used to make Puppet a bit more self-managing.

The file format supports octothorpe-commented lines, but not partial-line comments.
