Build Status Gem

Overview

A pupet-lint to check you are not using legacy facts like $::operatingsystem or $facts['operatingsystem']. You should use the new structured facts like $facts['os']['name'] instead

Installing

From the command line

$ gem install puppet-lint-legacy_facts-check

In a Gemfile

gem 'puppet-lint-legacy_facts-check', :require => false

Checks

What you have done

$package_name = $::operatingsystem {
  'CentOS' => 'httpd',
  'Debian' => 'apache2',
}
$package_name = $facts['operatingsystem'] {
  'CentOS' => 'httpd',
  'Debian' => 'apache2',
}

What you should have done

$service_name = $facts['os']['name'] {
  'CentOS' => 'httpd',
  'Debian' => 'apache2',
}

Disabling the check

To disable this check, you can add --no-legacy_facts to your puppet-lint command line.

$ puppet-lint --no-legacy_facts path/to/file.pp

Alternatively, if you’re calling puppet-lint via the Rake task, you should insert the following line to your Rakefile.

PuppetLint.configuration.send('disable_legacy_facts')

Limitations

Some facts have no equivalent in the structured fact list:

memoryfree_mb

There is no fact that returns exclusively in MiB.

The closest equivalent is $facts['memory']['system'][available'] or $facts['memory']['system']['available_bytes'].

See facter documentation on memory.

memorysize_mb

There is no fact that returns exclusively in MiB.

The closest equivalent is $facts['memory']['system']['total'] or $facts['memory']['system']['total_bytes'].

See facter documentation on memory.

swapfree_mb

There is no fact that returns exclusively in MiB.

The closest equivalent is $facts['memory']['swap']['available'] or $facts['memory']['swap']['available_bytes'].

See facter documentation on memory.

swapsize_mb

There is no fact that returns exclusively in MiB.

The closest equivalent is $facts['memory']['swap']['used'] or $facts['memory']['swap']['used_bytes'].

See facter documentation on memory.

blockdevices

This returns a string containing all block devices separated by a comma.

This can be duplicated using puppetlabs/stdlib and the following: join(keys($facts['disks']), ',')

interfaces

This returns a string containing all interfaces separated by a comma.

This can be duplicated using puppetlabs/stdlib and the following: join(keys($facts['networking']['interfaces']), ',').

zones

This returns a string containing all zone names separated by a comma.

This can be duplicated using puppetlabs/stdlib and the following: join(keys($facts['solaris_zones']['zones']), ',')

sshfp_dsa

This returns a string containing both the SHA1 and SHA256 fingerprint for the DSA algorithm.

This can be duplicated using the following string: "$facts['ssh']['dsa']['fingerprints']['sha1'] $facts['ssh']['dsa']['fingerprints']['sha256']"

sshfp_ecdsa

This returns a string containing both the SHA1 and SHA256 fingerprint for the ECDSA algorithm.

This can be duplicated using the following string: "$facts['ssh']['ecdsa']['fingerprints']['sha1'] $facts['ssh']['ecdsa']['fingerprints']['sha256']"

sshfp_ed25519

This returns a string containing both the SHA1 and SHA256 fingerprint for the Ed25519 algorithm.

This can be duplicated using the following string: "$facts['ssh']['ed25519']['fingerprints']['sha1'] $facts['ssh']['ed25519']['fingerprints']['sha256']"

sshfp_rsa

This returns a string containing both the SHA1 and SHA256 fingerprint for the RSA algorithm.

This can be duplicated using the following string: "$facts['ssh']['rsa']['fingerprints']['sha1'] $facts['ssh']['rsa']['fingerprints']['sha256']"
