==============

**This module is archived! Do not use it anymore**

The discussion happened in https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-boolean/issues/34

Define actual boolean parameters and properties for puppet types.

Synopsis

--------

Puppet has loosely defined internal types which can make normalizing boolean

values in types and providers difficult. This custom parameter and property

will handle that normalization in one place by defining actual boolean states.

Example

-------

**Type implementation**:

    require 'puppet/property/boolean'

    Puppet::Type.newtype(:awesome) do

      newparam(:name, :namevar => true)

      newparam(:more_explosions, :parent => Puppet::Parameter::Boolean) do

        desc "Indicate that more explosions are necessary"

        defaultto true # When it doubt, we want more explosions

      end

      newproperty(:better_than_sliced_bread, :parent => Puppet::Property::Boolean) do

        desc "Determine if the thing is more awesome than sliced bread"

        defaultto true # It's not hard to be more awesome than sliced bread

      end

      newproperty(:better_than_rocket_boots, :parent => Puppet::Property::Boolean) do

        desc "Determine if the thing is more often than rocket boots"

        defaultto false # Rocket boots are pretty hard to beat

      end

      newproperty(:will_get_you_eaten_by_sharks, :parent => Puppet::Property::Boolean) do

        desc "Determine if this is so awesome that it'll get you eaten by sharks"

        defaultto :false # Use a symbol for the default value and it'll still be false

      end

      newproperty(:suitable_for_human_consumption, :parent => Puppet::Property::Boolean) do

        desc "Determine if the thing is both awesome and edible"

        defaultto :false # The are more non-edible things than edible things

      end

    end

**Type usage**:

    awesome { 'actual booleans':

      more_explosions                => 'yes',  # Use yes as a quoted string!

      better_than_rocket_boots       => true,   # Use an unquoted string!

      better_than_sliced_bread       => 'true', # Use a quoted string!

      suitable_for_human_consumption => no,     # Use yes and no! It doesn't matter!

    }
