A puppet-lint plugin to check that classes are included by their absolute name.

## Installing

### From the command line

```shell
$ gem install puppet-lint-absolute_classname-check
```

### In a Gemfile

```ruby
gem 'puppet-lint-absolute_classname-check', :require => false
```

## Checks

### Relative class name inclusion

Including a class by a relative name might lead to unexpected results.

#### What you have done

```puppet
include foobar
```

#### What you should have done

```puppet
include ::foobar
```

#### Disabling the check

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

```shell
$ puppet-lint --no-absolute_classname-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_absolute_classname')
```
