class Puppet::Util::LoadedFile

Attributes

file[R]
statted[R]
tstamp[W]

Provide a hook for setting the timestamp during testing, so we don’t have to depend on the granularity of the filesystem.

Public Class Methods

new(file) click to toggle source

Create the file. Must be passed the file path.

# File lib/puppet/util/loadedfile.rb, line 35
def initialize(file)
  @file = file
  @statted = 0
  @stamp = nil
  @tstamp = stamp
end

Public Instance Methods

changed?() click to toggle source

Determine whether the file has changed and thus whether it should be reparsed.

# File lib/puppet/util/loadedfile.rb, line 17
def changed?
  # Allow the timeout to be disabled entirely.
  return true if Puppet[:filetimeout] < 0
  tmp = stamp

  # We use a different internal variable than the stamp method
  # because it doesn't keep historical state and we do -- that is,
  # we will always be comparing two timestamps, whereas
  # stamp just always wants the latest one.
  if tmp == @tstamp
    return false
  else
    @tstamp = tmp
    return @tstamp
  end
end

Retrieve the filestamp, but only refresh it if we’re beyond our filetimeout

# File lib/puppet/util/loadedfile.rb, line 44
def stamp
  if @stamp.nil? or (Time.now.to_i - @statted >= Puppet[:filetimeout])
    @statted = Time.now.to_i
    begin
      @stamp = File.stat(@file).ctime
    rescue Errno::ENOENT, Errno::ENOTDIR
      @stamp = Time.now
    end
  end
  @stamp
