| # Functions # |
| ## validate\_hash ## |
| |
| $somehash = { 'one' => 'two' } |
| validate\_hash($somehash) |
| |
| ## getvar() ## |
| |
| This function aims to look up variables in user-defined namespaces within |
| puppet. Note, if the namespace is a class, it should already be evaluated |
| before the function is used. |
| |
| $namespace = 'site::data' |
| include "${namespace}" |
| $myvar = getvar("${namespace}::myvar") |
