[Puppet Users] quick split function question

[Matt]

With 0.25 we can use the split function to parse a string in to an array.

In puppet how can I reference a single element of that array?

$temp = "1,2,3,4"

Then i'd lilke to do :

$val = split($temp,',')[0]

Thanks,

Matt

I suspect he wants to use the new split() parser function available in manifests and not in a template.

In that case, no you cannot reference a specific array member in the puppet DSL at present.

$temp = '1,2,3,4'
$val = inline_template(<%= temp.split(',')[0] %>)
