Build Status Code Climate Gem Version Coverage Status

A puppet-lint plugin to check the ensure attribute on file resources.

Checks

Ensure present on file resource

The present value for the ensure attribute is ambiguous. You should use file instead.

What you have done

puppet file { '/etc/sudoers': ensure => present, }

What you should have done

puppet file { '/etc/sudoers': ensure => file, }

Disabling the check

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

shell $ puppet-lint --no-file_ensure-check path/to/file.pp

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

ruby PuppetLint.configuration.send('disable_file_ensure')
