Public Instance Methods

allclear() click to toggle source

An implementation specific method that removes all type instances during testing. @note Only use this method for testing purposes. @api private

   # File lib/puppet/metatype/manager.rb
18 def allclear
19   @types.each { |name, type|
20     type.clear
21   }
22 end
clear_misses() click to toggle source

Clears any types that were used but absent when types were last loaded. @note Used after each catalog compile when always_retry_plugins is false @api private

   # File lib/puppet/metatype/manager.rb
28 def clear_misses
29   unless @types.nil?
30     @types.delete_if {|_, v| v.nil? }
31   end
32 end
eachtype() { |type| ... } click to toggle source

Iterates over all already loaded Type subclasses. @yield [t] a block receiving each type @yieldparam t [Puppet::Type] each defined type @yieldreturn [Object] the last returned object is also returned from this method @return [Object] the last returned value from the block.

   # File lib/puppet/metatype/manager.rb
39 def eachtype
40   @types.each do |name, type|
41     # Only consider types that have names
42     #if ! type.parameters.empty? or ! type.validproperties.empty?
43       yield type
44     #end
45   end
46 end
loadall() click to toggle source

Loads all types. @note Should only be used for purposes such as generating documentation as this is potentially a very

expensive operation.

@return [void]

   # File lib/puppet/metatype/manager.rb
53 def loadall
54   typeloader.loadall(Puppet.lookup(:current_environment))
55 end
newtype(name, options = {}, &block) click to toggle source

Defines a new type or redefines an existing type with the given name. A convenience method on the form `new<name>` where name is the name of the type is also created. (If this generated method happens to clash with an existing method, a warning is issued and the original method is kept).

@param name [String] the name of the type to create or redefine. @param options [Hash] options passed on to {Puppet::Util::ClassGen#genclass} as the option `:attributes`. @option options [Puppet::Type]

Puppet::Type. This option is not passed on as an attribute to genclass.

@yield [ ] a block evaluated in the context of the created class, thus allowing further detailing of

that class.

@return [Class<inherits Puppet::Type>] the created subclass @see Puppet::Util::ClassGen.genclass
