module Puppet::Parser::Functions

  newfunction(:validate_hash, :doc => <<-'ENDHEREDOC') do |args|
    Validate all passed values are a Hash data structure
    value does not pass the check.

    Example:

    These values validate

        $my_hash = { 'one' => 'two' }
        validate_hash($my_hash)

    These values do NOT validate

        validate_hash(true)
        validate_hash('some_string')
        $undefined = undef
        validate_hash($undefined)
