puppet propagate variable from node to erb tamplate?
- by picca
Is it possible to declare variable in node and than propage it way down to the erb template?
Example:
node basenode {
$myvar = "bar" # default
include myclass
}
node mynode extends basenode {
$myvar = "foo"
}
class myclass {
file { "/root/myfile":
content => template("myclass/mytemplate.erb")
ensure => present,
}
}
Source of mytemplate.erb:
myvar has value: <%= myvar %>
I know that my example might be complicated. But I'm trying to propagate file on (almost) all my nodes and I want its content to be altered depending on the node which requests the file. The $myvar = "bar" statement should be default when node does not override its value.
Is there a solution to my problem? I'm using puppet 0.24.5
