The arguments are a hash and separator string. The return value is an array of joined key/value pairs. --- lib/puppet/parser/functions/join_keys_to_values.rb | 47 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 47 insertions(+) create mode 100644 lib/puppet/parser/functions/join_keys_to_values.rb (limited to 'lib') diff --git a/lib/puppet/parser/functions/join_keys_to_values.rb b/lib/puppet/parser/functions/join_keys_to_values.rb new file mode 100644 index 0000000..e9924fe --- /dev/null +++ b/lib/puppet/parser/functions/join_keys_to_values.rb @@ -0,0 +1,47 @@ +# +# join.rb +# + +module Puppet::Parser::Functions + newfunction(:join_keys_to_values, :type => :rvalue, :doc => <<-EOS +This function joins each key of a hash to that key's corresponding value with a +separator.
