# The virtual base class for properties, which are the self-contained building # blocks for actually doing work on the system. require 'puppet' require 'puppet/parameter' # The Property class is the implementation of a resource's attributes of _property_ kind. # A Property is a specialized Resource Type Parameter that has both an 'is' (current) state, and # a 'should' (wanted state). However, even if this is conceptually true, the current _is_ value is # obtained by asking the associated provider for the value, and hence it is not actually part of a # property's state, and only available when a provider has been selected and can obtain the value (i.e. when # running on an agent). # # A Property (also in contrast to a parameter) is intended to describe a managed attribute of # some system entity, such as the name or mode of a file. # # The current value _(is)_ is read and written with the methods {#retrieve} and {#set}, and the wanted # value _(should)_ is read and written with the methods {#value} and {#value=} which delegate to # {#should} and {#should=}, i.e. when a property is used like any other parameter, it is the _should_ value # that is operated on. # # All resource type properties in the puppet system are derived from this class. # # The intention is that new parameters are created by using the DSL method {Puppet::Type.newproperty}. # # @abstract # @note Properties of Types are expressed using subclasses of this class. Such a class describes one # named property of a particular Type (as opposed to describing a type of property in general). This # limits the use of one (concrete) property class instance to occur only once for a given type's inheritance # chain. An instance of a Property class is the value holder of one instance of the resource type (e.g. the # mode of a file resource instance). # A Property class may server as the superclass _(parent)_ of another; e.g. a Size property that describes # handling of measurements such as kb, mb, gb. If a type requires two different size measurements it requires # one concrete class per such measure; e.g. MinSize (:parent => Size), and MaxSize (:parent => Size). # # @todo Describe meta-parameter shadowing.
