# puppet-deprecate #

A puppet function to log deprecations in your manifests

## Introduction ##

Sometimes you need to add resources to your manifests that should only
exist for a set period of time. By adding a call to the `deprecate`
function you can either output a warning in the puppetservers log or
cause the entire run to fail.

`deprecate` takes 2 or 3 arguments.

* A date string, in either YYYYMMDD or YYYY-MM-DD formats
* A free form string describing the what and why of the deprecation
* An optional boolean to control if the run should be aborted

## Examples ##

class deprecated_resources {

# show a warning in puppetservers log
deprecate('2015-01-20', 'Remove Foo at the end of the contract')

# fail the run and show a warning clients output and puppet server logfile
deprecate('2015-01-25', 'Remove Foo at the end of the contract', true)

}

# warning in the pupperserver log
13:56:17,938 WARN [puppet-server] Puppet Class[Json_tester]
expired on 20150120: Remove Foo at the end of the contract

# error on the client side when abort is set to true
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server:
