Description of problem:
Having a smart variable with overriding rules like:
Prioritize attribute order:
atributeOne,attributeTwo
attributeTwo
then attributeTwo is taken with _higher_ priority than the compound one.
Thanks to tbrisker++, the cause is:
Sat6.3:
https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/blob/1.15-stable/app/services/classification/base.rb#L50
that is executed as:
[16] pry(main)> "domain,ip\r\ndomain,netmask\r\ndomain".index('domain')
=> 0
instead of proper code:
[17] pry(main)> "domain,ip\r\ndomain,netmask\r\ndomain".split.index('domain')
=> 2
Sat6.4 has the same bug in:
https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/blob/1.18-stable/app/services/classification/values_hash_query.rb#L64
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
any
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a Host with a puppet class applied (e.g. access_insights_client).
2. For the class, override a parameter by having:
Prioritize attribute order:
domain,netmask
domain,hostgroup
os
domain
hostgroup
Specify matchers:
domain,netmask = (insert values from the Host) => Value1
domain,hostgroup = (insert values from the Host) => Value2
os = (insert value from the Host) => Value3
domain = (insert value from the Host) => Value4
3.
Check YAML/ENC of the Host and find the overriden smart parameter value
Actual results:
The parameter value will be Value4, and domain attribute matcher applied
Expected results:
Value1 to be applied, and domain,netmask attribute matcher applied.
Additional info:
Verified on Satellite 6.5 snap 20. overriding params in access_insights_clients + steps from problem description. Compound keys take priority if they come first in the list than separate matches.
