How do you concatenate strings in a Puppet .pp file?

Question

Here is my naive approach:

# puppet/init.pp
$x = \'hello \' + 
     \'goodbye\'

This does not work. How does one concatenate strings i

Answer 1

As stated in docs, you can just use ${varname} interpolation. And that works with function calls as well:

$mesosZK = "zk://${join($zookeeperservers,':2181,')}:2181/mesos"
$x = "${dirname($file)}/anotherfile"

Could not use {} with function arguments though: got Syntax error at '}'.
