Puppet Function: join_keys_to_values

Defined in:
lib/puppet/parser/functions/join_keys_to_values.rb
Function type:

Overview

join_keys_to_values() ⇒ Any

This function joins each key of a hash to that key’s corresponding value with a separator. Keys are cast to strings. If values are arrays, multiple keys are added for each element. The return value is an array in which each element is one joined key/value pair.

Examples:

join_keys_to_values({'a'=>1,'b'=>2}, " is ")

Would result in: [“a is 1”,“b is 2”]

join_keys_to_values({'a'=>1,'b'=>[2,3]}, " is ")

Would result in: [“a is 1”,“b is 2”,“b is 3”]

Returns:
