Do you mean something like?
param name = ntp_sever
param_value = ntp.$domain ?

ipaddress = 'your ip'
any fact or something that foreman knows about (even another param) can be
used as a key on the left side of the matcher.

@ohadlevey I think the question is, can Facts be passed as the answer,
not as the the matcher. I.e given these Facts:
hostname = foo
ip = 1.2.3.4
you might want to do
Matcher: fqdn = 'foo'
Value: $ip
and have the ENC Yaml for 'foo' display:
classes:
bar:
quux: 1.2.3.4
As it stands, I don't think we can do this today - the param class
support only sends static text to the ENC, right?

You got it right!
The point is to force Foreman to send a fact as a value.

I got the same question = we are now migrating to Foreman ENC from
ldap
and in LDAP we had one more parameter named ipHostNumber. I dont want
to
copy it, so i tried to add smart variable something like ipHostNumber
=
facts.ipaddress
sure, just use as a matcher
ipaddress = ‘your ip’
any fact or something that foreman knows about (even another param) can
be
used as a key on the left side of the matcher.

Hi,
I'm using Foreman 1.3.
Is it possible to force Foreman to send a fact as a value ?
Thanks.

so after looking,afaiu, and maybe Greg can correct me, its possible but not
trivial, you can now do:
value = <%= @host.ip %>
accessing facts actually needs to expose a bit more from foreman internals,
which is not good, and I would guess will not work with safe mode
rendering turned on.
value = <%= FactValue.joins(:fact_name).where(:host_id => @host.id, "
fact_names.name" => 'ipaddress').first.try(:value) %>
this should be really exposed into a official method such as
value = <%= fact('ipaddress') %> instead…
would you mind adding that as a feature request?
thanks,
Ohad

Hi,
I confirm that with version 1.3 we can do:
value = <%= @host.ip %>
I've just registered on http://project.theforeman.org and I will add a new
feature request about accessing facts through an official method.
Thanks.
