puppet-lint-i18n plugin

To use this plugin, add the following like to the Gemfile in your Puppet code base and run bundle install.

gem 'puppet-lint-i18n'

This plugin provides a new check to puppet-lint. It will detect functions that do not have their output message wrapped in a translate call.

• warning
• fail

For example the following puppet code does not wrap the message

warning('message')

wrapping the message then looks like

warning(translate('message'))

WARNING: 'warning' messages should be decorated: eg translate('old_root_password is no longer used and will be removed in a future release') on line 48

This tells you which file and what line the infringement occurred, as well as the suggested fix

• Multiline strings

BAD

warning(translate('to be or') / 
translate('not to be'))

GOOD

warning(translate('to be or not to be')

• Concatenated strings
• Heredoc strings

The :HEREDOC_OPEN token (@(EOL)) should be the only part passed to the translate() function. Do not pass the entire heredoc.

BAD

warning(translate(@(EOL)
  This is a heredoc.
  It's lovely. 
  | EOL))

GOOD

warning(translate(@(EOL))
  This is a heredoc.
  It's lovely. 
  | EOL)

• Interpolated strings

Interpolated strings are not supported at this time and will not be decorated with the fix option.

--fix support: Yes
