From what I understand, munging is taking user input and transforming it.

Let's say Yum repos.

yum {
  'puppetlabs':
    enable => true,
}

But then, the yumrepo accepts true, false, 0, 1.

The provider says that it has:

yum {
  'puppetlabs':
    enable => 1,
}


How would Puppet know that this is the same, without trying to change the resource?


What am I missing?

The data type for enable is Variant[Integer[0,1], Enum[true, false]]

implementation:

case target_state[:enable]
when 1, 'true'
  if missing create_and_log
  else return
when 0, 'false'
  if exists remove_and_log
  else return
end
