Hrmmm...They can be used and unwrapped. The bigger question is, will they be redacted in the logs
Off the top of my head...probably not
@rismoney Are you talking the Puppet Sensitive Type stuff or the choco.exe parameter --install-arguments-sensitive and --package-parameters-sensitive ?
Rich Siegel
@rismoney
i was talking the puppet sensitive stuff.. i wasn't able to pass these into install_options. when i don't use sensitive, obviously they aren't redacted from logs.
i wasn't even aware of the choco params. thats cool though! the issue i was trying to solve for, was with secrets encrypted in hiera, passed to choco installer, with redaction on puppet side

@ferventcoder
Those arguments for sensitive are only in C4B @rismoney
To ensure those sensitive args stay out of the choco logs as well
But @rismoney you were right to file the Puppet module issue - I think that needs addressed.
Rich Siegel
@rismoney
ah - ok.
happy new year btw :)

@ferventcoder
Because it makes sense for organizational use, that's typically the deciding factor for features
You as well sir!
@rismoney you should join the #integration-puppet room over at Chocolatey Slack - https://join.slack.com/t/chocolatey/shared_invite/enQtNDI1MTA1OTY4NDAwLTRhNWVhOWI5NjVhZDNjODA4MzczMThjY2UyMWIwOTdiOWJmZjAxZTkwMjAwNjY1MzQ3NjQ3MDEwYjM2YjgxMzQ
We were just talking about MODULES-8491 over there.

hey guys , Im using puppet chocolatey module to install chocolatey on my servers , during the first run I always have an issue and puppet run breaks with an error :
Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on SERVER: Server Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, validate_re(): input needs to be a String, not a NilClass (file: /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/<Lifecycle>/modules/chocolatey/manifests/init.pp, line: 79, column: 1) on node <Node Name>

This Corresponds to line 79 in the puppet module
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-chocolatey/blob/3.2.0/manifests/init.pp
validate_re($choco_install_location, '^\w\:',

any thoughts on why this issue occurs ?
this issue is only during the first run

@aplusnunes prolly best to ask in #puppet slack or on JIRA where Puppet folks are monitoring

@/all Howdy Chocolatey community folks - this is a heads up, our new website has shipped. Some links have moved around a tiny bit, so read the post to know where things are now! https://chocolatey.org/blog/chocolatey-website-redesign

Super pumped with the organization tab on the packages page. Build your config mgmt script - https://twitter.com/ferventcoder/status/1175536558742626305?s=20

@/all We deployed out some changes to help stabilize the site at 12:15 UTC (6:15 AM UTC), but unintentionally we caused all dependencies to stop working. So if you use the community repository (https://chocolatey.org/api/v2), you will have seen some "Unable to resolve dependency" errors (https://github.com/chocolatey/chocolatey.org/issues/765). We've backed out the affected code, redeployed, and verified it's working again.

Our plan is to reintroduce the use index changes to the community production site once we ensure that the skip token is working correctly. Please continue to monitor https://status.chocolatey.org as we continue to provide updates.

Howdy folks! If you are looking to change things up in the new year and double down on Windows automation, I have a friend looking for a couple of senior engineers for his team. Among other things, this role would be for managing Puppet infrastructure and assisting users with using Puppet and Chocolatey. Windows experience is a huge plus. This is based in Bentonville, AR. Unfortunately, no remote due to the user centric nature of the work.

I can put you in touch with my friend if you want to discuss it more with him. Here is the posting: https://careers.walmart.com/us/jobs/WD74294-senior-systems-engineer-tech-2

@/all PSA: Last night around 23:10 UTC we deployed a change that caused asking for packages by version to stop working for the #Chocolatey community repository. After reports from users, that was fixed by 13:54 UTC. Apologies we didn't see the issue sooner.

@/all we have just published a blog post with some information regarding the intermittent issues with the website at the end of December last year. You can find it here: https://chocolatey.org/blog/chocolatey-community-repository-issues-December-2019 Please let us know if you have any questions.
