Class: Puppet::Reports

Inherits:
Object show all
Extended by:
Util::ClassGen, Util::InstanceLoader
Defined in:
lib/puppet/reports.rb

Overview

This class is an implementation of a simple mechanism for loading and returning reports. The intent is that a user registers a report by calling Reports.register_report and providing a code block that performs setup, and defines a method called ‘process`. The setup, and the `process` method are called in the context where `self` is an instance of Transaction::Report which provides the actual data for the report via its methods.

Required configuration: –

  • A .rb file that defines a new report should be placed in the master’s directory ‘lib/puppet/reports`

  • The ‘puppet.conf` file must have `report = true` in the `[agent]` section

Examples:

Minimal scaffolding for a report…

Puppet::Reports::.register_report(:myreport) do
  # do setup here
  def process
    if self.status == 'failed'
      msg = "failed puppet run for #{self.host} #{self.status}"
      . . .
    else
      . . .
    end
  end
end

Class Method Details

.register_report(name, options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

TODO:

Uncertain what the options :useyaml really does; “whether yaml should be used or not”, used where/how?

Adds a new report type. The block should contain setup, and define a method with the name ‘process`. The `process` method is called when the report is executed; the `process` method has access to report data via methods available in its context where `self` is an instance of Transaction::Report.

For an example, see the overview of this class.

Parameters:

  • name (Symbol) —

    the name of the report (do not use whitespace in the name).

  • options (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    a hash of options

Options Hash (options):

  • :useyaml (Boolean) —

    whether yaml should be used or not
