Update pick error message "at least one non empty value"
|
|
When pick function fail return a better error message like
the other stdlib functions, indicating that the error
is on function pick.
This would help people that see the error to identity it is
related to a incorrect use of stdlib function pick, instead of having
to grep all puppet libraries and manifests source for the old message.
I had also changed the spec test.
pick function change spec as suggested GH-179
Fix the spec test to use expect {}.to instead of lambda {}.should
as explained by Adrienthebo.
"Using expect { }.to is preferred over lambda { }.should.
In addition it's best practice to do a string match against the
error message to ensure that we're catching the right error,
instead of any error of the right type."
Also fixed a typo on the error message, it was missing one space.
pick function stylish fix as suggested on GH179

This function is similar to a coalesce function in SQL in that it will
return
the first value in a list of values that is not undefined or an empty
string
(two things in Puppet that will return a boolean false value).
Typically,
this function is used to check for a value in the Puppet
Dashboard/Enterprise
Console, and failover to a default value like the following:
$real_jenkins_version = pick($::jenkins_version, '1.449')
The value of $real_jenkins_version will first look for a top-scope
variable
called 'jenkins_version' (note that parameters set in the Puppet
Dashboard/
Enterprise Console are brought into Puppet as top-scope variables), and,
failing that, will use a default value of 1.449.
