+Checklist (and a short version for the impatient)
+=================================================
+
+  * Commits:
+
+    - Make commits of logical units.
+
+    - Check for unnecessary whitespace with "git diff --check" before
+      committing.
+
+    - Commit using Unix line endings (check the settings around "crlf" in
+      git-config(1)).
+
+    - Do not check in commented out code or unneeded files.
+
+    - The first line of the commit message should be a short
+      description (50 characters is the soft limit, excluding ticket
+      number(s)), and should skip the full stop.
+
+    - Associate the issue in the message. The first line should include
+      the issue number in the form "(#XXXX) Rest of message".
+
+    - The body should provide a meaningful commit message, which:
+
+      - uses the imperative, present tense: "change", not "changed" or
+        "changes".
+
+      - includes motivation for the change, and contrasts its
+        implementation with the previous behavior.
+
+    - Make sure that you have tests for the bug you are fixing, or
+      feature you are adding.
+
+    - Make sure the test suites passes after your commit:
+      `bundle exec rspec spec/acceptance` More information on [testing](#Testing) below
+
+    - When introducing a new feature, make sure it is properly
+      documented in the README.md
+
+  * Submission:
+
+    * Pre-requisites:
+
+      - Make sure you have a [GitHub account](https://github.com/join)
+
+      - [Create a ticket](https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/secure/CreateIssue!default.jspa), or [watch the ticket](https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/) you are patching for.
+
+    * Preferred method:
+
+      - Fork the repository on GitHub.
+
+      - Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the
+        repository. (the format ticket/1234-short_description_of_change is
+        usually preferred for this project).
+
+      - Submit a pull request to the repository in the puppetlabs
+        organization.
+
+The long version
+================
+
+  1.  Make separate commits for logically separate changes.
+
+      Please break your commits down into logically consistent units
+      which include new or changed tests relevant to the rest of the
+      change.  The goal of doing this is to make the diff easier to
+      read for whoever is reviewing your code.  In general, the easier
+      your diff is to read, the more likely someone will be happy to
+      review it and get it into the code base.
+
+      If you are going to refactor a piece of code, please do so as a
+      separate commit from your feature or bug fix changes.
+
+      We also really appreciate changes that include tests to make
+      sure the bug is not re-introduced, and that the feature is not
+      accidentally broken.
+
+      Describe the technical detail of the change(s).  If your
+      description starts to get too long, that is a good sign that you
+      probably need to split up your commit into more finely grained
+      pieces.
+
+      Commits which plainly describe the things which help
+      reviewers check the patch and future developers understand the
+      code are much more likely to be merged in with a minimum of
+      bike-shedding or requested changes.  Ideally, the commit message
+      would include information, and be in a form suitable for
+      inclusion in the release notes for the version of Puppet that
+      includes them.
+
+      Please also check that you are not introducing any trailing
+      whitespace or other "whitespace errors".  You can do this by
+      running "git diff --check" on your changes before you commit.
+
+  2.  Sending your patches
+
+      To submit your changes via a GitHub pull request, we _highly_
+      recommend that you have them on a topic branch, instead of
+      directly on "master".
+      It makes things much easier to keep track of, especially if
+      you decide to work on another thing before your first change
+      is merged in.
+
+      GitHub has some pretty good
+      [general documentation](http://help.github.com/) on using
+      their site.  They also have documentation on
+      [creating pull requests](http://help.github.com/send-pull-requests/).
+
+      In general, after pushing your topic branch up to your
+      repository on GitHub, you can switch to the branch in the
+      GitHub UI and click "Pull Request" towards the top of the page
+      in order to open a pull request.
+
+
+  3.  Update the related GitHub issue.
+
+      If there is a GitHub issue associated with the change you
+      submitted, then you should update the ticket to include the
+      location of your branch, along with any other commentary you
+      may wish to make.
+
+Testing
+=======
+
+Getting Started
+---------------
+
+Our puppet modules provide [`Gemfile`](./Gemfile)s which can tell a ruby
+package manager such as [bundler](http://bundler.io/) what Ruby packages,
+or Gems, are required to build, develop, and test this software.
+
+Please make sure you have [bundler installed](http://bundler.io/#getting-started)
+on your system, then use it to install all dependencies needed for this project,
+by running
+
+```shell
+% bundle install
+Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/........
+Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/..
+Using rake (10.1.0)
+Using builder (3.2.2)
+-- 8><-- many more --><8 --
+Using rspec-system-puppet (2.2.0)
+Using serverspec (0.6.3)
+Using rspec-system-serverspec (1.0.0)
+Using bundler (1.3.5)
+Your bundle is complete!
+Use `bundle show [gemname]` to see where a bundled gem is installed.
+```
+
+NOTE some systems may require you to run this command with sudo.
+
+If you already have those gems installed, make sure they are up-to-date:
+
+```shell
+% bundle update
+```
+
+With all dependencies in place and up-to-date we can now run the tests:
+
+```shell
+% rake spec
+```
+
+This will execute all the [rspec tests](http://rspec-puppet.com/) tests
+under [spec/defines](./spec/defines), [spec/classes](./spec/classes),
+and so on. rspec tests may have the same kind of dependencies as the
+module they are testing. While the module defines in its [Modulefile](./Modulefile),
+rspec tests define them in [.fixtures.yml](./fixtures.yml).
+
+Some puppet modules also come with [beaker](https://github.com/puppetlabs/beaker)
+tests. These tests spin up a virtual machine under
+[VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/)) with, controlling it with
+[Vagrant](http://www.vagrantup.com/) to actually simulate scripted test
+scenarios. In order to run these, you will need both of those tools
+installed on your system.
+
+You can run them by issuing the following command
+
+```shell
+% rake spec_clean
+% rspec spec/acceptance
+```
+
+This will now download a pre-fabricated image configured in the [default node-set](./spec/acceptance/nodesets/default.yml),
+install puppet, copy this module and install its dependencies per [spec/spec_helper_acceptance.rb](./spec/spec_helper_acceptance.rb)
+and then run all the tests under [spec/acceptance](./spec/acceptance).
+
+Writing Tests
+-------------
+
+XXX getting started writing tests.
+
+If you have commit access to the repository
+===========================================
+
+Even if you have commit access to the repository, you will still need to
+go through the process above, and have someone else review and merge
+in your changes.  The rule is that all changes must be reviewed by a
+developer on the project (that did not write the code) to ensure that
+all changes go through a code review process.
+
+Having someone other than the author of the topic branch recorded as
+performing the merge is the record that they performed the code
+review.

+##Overview
+
+Adds a standard library of resources for Puppet modules.
+
+##Module Description
+
+This module provides a standard library of resources for the development of Puppet
+modules. Puppet modules make heavy use of this standard library. The stdlib module adds the following resources to Puppet:
+
+ * Stages
+ * Facts
+ * Functions
+ * Defined resource types
+ * Types
+ * Providers
+
+> *Note:* As of version 3.7, Puppet Enterprise no longer includes the stdlib module. If you're running Puppet Enterprise, you should install the most recent release of stdlib for compatibility with Puppet modules.
+
+##Setup
+
+Installing the stdlib module adds the functions, facts, and resources of this standard library to Puppet.
+
+##Usage
+
+After you've installed stdlib, all of its functions, facts, and resources are available for module use or development.
+
+If you want to use a standardized set of run stages for Puppet, `include stdlib` in your manifest.
+
+## Reference
+
+### Classes
+
+#### Public Classes
+
+* `stdlib`: Most of stdlib's features are automatically loaded by Puppet. To use standardized run stages in Puppet, declare this class in your manifest with `include stdlib`.
+
+  When declared, stdlib declares all other classes in the module. The only other class currently included in the module is `stdlib::stages`.
+
+  The stdlib class has no parameters.
+
+#### Private Classes
+
+* `stdlib::stages`: This class manages a standard set of run stages for Puppet. It is managed by the stdlib class and should not be declared independently.
+
+  The `stdlib::stages` class declares various run stages for deploying infrastructure, language runtimes, and application layers. The high level stages are (in order):
+
+  * setup
+  * main
+  * runtime
+  * setup_infra
+  * deploy_infra
+  * setup_app
+  * deploy_app
+  * deploy
+
+  Sample usage:
+
+  ```
+  node default {
+    include stdlib
+    class { java: stage => 'runtime' }
+  }
+  ```
+
+### Resources
+
+* `file_line`: This resource ensures that a given line, including whitespace at the beginning and end, is contained within a file. If the line is not contained in the given file, Puppet will add the line. Multiple resources can be declared to manage multiple lines in the same file. You can also use match to replace existing lines.
+
+  ```
+  file_line { 'sudo_rule':
+    path => '/etc/sudoers',
+    line => '%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL',
+  }
+  file_line { 'sudo_rule_nopw':
+    path => '/etc/sudoers',
+    line => '%sudonopw ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL',
+  }
+  ```
+
+  * `after`: Specify the line after which Puppet will add any new lines. (Existing lines are added in place.) Optional.
+  * `ensure`: Ensures whether the resource is present. Valid values are 'present', 'absent'.
+ * `line`: The line to be added to the file located by the `path` parameter.
+ * `match`: A regular expression to run against existing lines in the file; if a match is found, we replace that line rather than adding a new line. Optional.
+ * `multiple`: Determine if match can change multiple lines. Valid values are 'true', 'false'. Optional.
+ * `name`: An arbitrary name used as the identity of the resource.
+ * `path`: The file in which Puppet will ensure the line specified by the line parameter.
+
+### Functions
+
+#### `abs`
+
+Returns the absolute value of a number; for example, '-34.56' becomes '34.56'. Takes a single integer and float value as an argument. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `any2array`
+
+This converts any object to an array containing that object. Empty argument lists are converted to an empty array. Arrays are left untouched. Hashes are converted to arrays of alternating keys and values. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `base64`
+
+Converts a string to and from base64 encoding.
+Requires an action ('encode', 'decode') and either a plain or base64-encoded
+string. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `basename`
+
+Returns the `basename` of a path (optionally stripping an extension). For example:
+  * ('/path/to/a/file.ext') returns 'file.ext'
+  * ('relative/path/file.ext') returns 'file.ext'
+  * ('/path/to/a/file.ext', '.ext') returns 'file'
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `bool2num`
+
+Converts a boolean to a number. Converts values:
+  * 'false', 'f', '0', 'n', and 'no' to 0.
+  * 'true', 't', '1', 'y', and 'yes' to 1.
+  Requires a single boolean or string as an input. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `capitalize`
+
+Capitalizes the first letter of a string or array of strings.
+Requires either a single string or an array as an input. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `ceiling`
+
+Returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to the argument.
+Takes a single numeric value as an argument. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `chomp`
+
+Removes the record separator from the end of a string or an array of
+strings; for example, 'hello\n' becomes 'hello'. Requires a single string or array as an input. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `chop`
+
+Returns a new string with the last character removed. If the string ends with '\r\n', both characters are removed. Applying `chop` to an empty string returns an empty string. If you want to merely remove record separators, then you should use the `chomp` function. Requires a string or an array of strings as input. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `concat`
+
+Appends the contents of multiple arrays onto array 1. For example:
+  * `concat(['1','2','3'],'4')` results in: ['1','2','3','4'].
+  * `concat(['1','2','3'],'4',['5','6','7'])` results in: ['1','2','3','4','5','6','7'].
+
+#### `count`
+
+Takes an array as first argument and an optional second argument. Count the number of elements in array that matches second argument. If called with only an array, it counts the number of elements that are **not** nil/undef. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `defined_with_params`
+
+Takes a resource reference and an optional hash of attributes. Returns 'true' if a resource with the specified attributes has already been added to the catalog. Returns 'false' otherwise.
+
+  ```
+  user { 'dan':
+    ensure => present,
+  }
+
+  if ! defined_with_params(User[dan], {'ensure' => 'present' }) {
+    user { 'dan': ensure => present, }
+  }
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `delete`
+
+Deletes all instances of a given element from an array, substring from a
+string, or key from a hash. For example, `delete(['a','b','c','b'], 'b')` returns ['a','c']; `delete('abracadabra', 'bra')` returns 'acada'. `delete({'a' => 1,'b' => 2,'c' => 3},['b','c'])` returns {'a'=> 1} *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `delete_at`
+
+Deletes a determined indexed value from an array. For example, `delete_at(['a','b','c'], 1)` returns ['a','c']. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `delete_values`
+
+Deletes all instances of a given value from a hash. For example, `delete_values({'a'=>'A','b'=>'B','c'=>'C','B'=>'D'}, 'B')` returns {'a'=>'A','c'=>'C','B'=>'D'} *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `delete_undef_values`
+
+Deletes all instances of the undef value from an array or hash. For example, `$hash = delete_undef_values({a=>'A', b=>'', c=>undef, d => false})` returns {a => 'A', b => '', d => false}. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `difference`
+
+Returns the difference between two arrays.
+The returned array is a copy of the original array, removing any items that
+also appear in the second array. For example, `difference(["a","b","c"],["b","c","d"])` returns ["a"].
+
+#### `dirname`
+
+Returns the `dirname` of a path. For example, `dirname('/path/to/a/file.ext')` returns '/path/to/a'.
+
+#### `downcase`
+
+Converts the case of a string or of all strings in an array to lowercase. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `empty`
+
+Returns 'true' if the variable is empty. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `ensure_packages`
+
+Takes a list of packages and only installs them if they don't already exist. It optionally takes a hash as a second parameter to be passed as the third argument to the `ensure_resource()` function. *Type*: statement
+
+#### `ensure_resource`
+
+Takes a resource type, title, and a list of attributes that describe a resource.
+
+  ```
+  user { 'dan':
+    ensure => present,
+  }
+  ```
+
+  This example only creates the resource if it does not already exist:
+
+    `ensure_resource('user', 'dan', {'ensure' => 'present' })`
+
+  If the resource already exists, but does not match the specified parameters, this function attempts to recreate the resource, leading to a duplicate resource definition error.
+
+  An array of resources can also be passed in, and each will be created with the type and parameters specified if it doesn't already exist.
+
+  `ensure_resource('user', ['dan','alex'], {'ensure' => 'present'})`
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `flatten`
+
+This function flattens any deeply nested arrays and returns a single flat array as a result. For example, `flatten(['a', ['b', ['c']]])` returns ['a','b','c']. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `floor`
+
+Returns the largest integer less than or equal to the argument.
+Takes a single numeric value as an argument. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `fqdn_rand_string`
+
+Generates a random alphanumeric string using an optionally-specified character set (default is alphanumeric), combining the `$fqdn` fact and an optional seed for repeatable randomness.
+
+*Usage:*
+```
+fqdn_rand_string(LENGTH, [CHARSET], [SEED])
+```
+*Examples:*
+```
+fqdn_rand_string(10)
+fqdn_rand_string(10, 'ABCDEF!@#$%^')
+fqdn_rand_string(10, '', 'custom seed')
+```
+
+*Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `fqdn_rotate`
+
+Rotates an array a random number of times based on a node's fqdn. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `get_module_path`
+
+Returns the absolute path of the specified module for the current environment.
+
+  `$module_path = get_module_path('stdlib')`
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `getparam`
+
+Takes a resource reference and the name of the parameter and
+returns the value of the resource's parameter. For example, the following code returns 'param_value'.
+
+  *Example:*
+
+  ```
+  define example_resource($param) {
+  }
+
+  example_resource { "example_resource_instance":
+    param => "param_value"
+  }
+
+  getparam(Example_resource["example_resource_instance"], "param")
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `getvar`
+
+Lookup a variable in a remote namespace.
+
+  For example:
+
+  ```
+  $foo = getvar('site::data::foo')
+  # Equivalent to $foo = $site::data::foo
+  ```
+
+  This is useful if the namespace itself is stored in a string:
+
+  ```
+  $datalocation = 'site::data'
+  $bar = getvar("${datalocation}::bar")
+  # Equivalent to $bar = $site::data::bar
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `grep`
+
+This function searches through an array and returns any elements that match the provided regular expression. For example, `grep(['aaa','bbb','ccc','aaaddd'], 'aaa')` returns ['aaa','aaaddd']. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `has_interface_with`
+
+Returns boolean based on kind and value:
+  * macaddress
+  * netmask
+  * ipaddress
+  * network
+
+  *Examples:*
+
+  ```
+  has_interface_with("macaddress", "x:x:x:x:x:x")
+  has_interface_with("ipaddress", "127.0.0.1")    => true
+  ```
+
+  If no kind is given, then the presence of the interface is checked:
+
+  ```
+  has_interface_with("lo")                        => true
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `has_ip_address`
+
+Returns true if the client has the requested IP address on some interface. This function iterates through the `interfaces` fact and checks the `ipaddress_IFACE` facts, performing a simple string comparison. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `has_ip_network`
+
+Returns true if the client has an IP address within the requested network. This function iterates through the 'interfaces' fact and checks the 'network_IFACE' facts, performing a simple string comparision. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `has_key`
+
+Determine if a hash has a certain key value.
+
+  *Example*:
+
+  ```
+  $my_hash = {'key_one' => 'value_one'}
+  if has_key($my_hash, 'key_two') {
+    notice('we will not reach here')
+  }
+  if has_key($my_hash, 'key_one') {
+    notice('this will be printed')
+  }
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `hash`
+
+This function converts an array into a hash. For example, `hash(['a',1,'b',2,'c',3])` returns {'a'=>1,'b'=>2,'c'=>3}. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `intersection`
+
+This function returns an array an intersection of two. For example, `intersection(["a","b","c"],["b","c","d"])` returns ["b","c"].
+
+#### `is_array`
+
+Returns 'true' if the variable passed to this function is an array. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `is_bool`
+
+Returns 'true' if the variable passed to this function is a boolean. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `is_domain_name`
+
+Returns 'true' if the string passed to this function is a syntactically correct domain name. *Type*: rvalue
+

+
+
+#### `assert_private`
+
+This function sets the current class or definition as private.
+Calling the class or definition from outside the current module will fail. For example, `assert_private()` called in class `foo::bar` outputs the following message if class is called from outside module `foo`:
+
+  ```
+  Class foo::bar is private
+  ```
+
+  You can specify the error message you want to use:
+
+  ```
+  assert_private("You're not supposed to do that!")
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `pw_hash`
+
+Hashes a password using the crypt function. Provides a hash usable on most POSIX systems.
+
+The first argument to this function is the password to hash. If it is undef or an empty string, this function returns undef.
+
+The second argument to this function is which type of hash to use. It will be converted into the appropriate crypt(3) hash specifier. Valid hash types are:
+
+|Hash type            |Specifier|
+|---------------------|---------|
+|MD5                  |1        |
+|SHA-256              |5        |
+|SHA-512 (recommended)|6        |
+
+The third argument to this function is the salt to use.
+
+Note: this uses the Puppet Master's implementation of crypt(3). If your environment contains several different operating systems, ensure that they are compatible before using this function.
+
+#### `range`
+
+When given range in the form of '(start, stop)', `range` extrapolates a range as an array. For example, `range("0", "9")` returns [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]. Zero-padded strings are converted to integers automatically, so `range("00", "09")` returns [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9].
+
+  Non-integer strings are accepted; `range("a", "c")` returns ["a","b","c"], and `range("host01", "host10")` returns ["host01", "host02", ..., "host09", "host10"].
+
+  Passing a third argument will cause the generated range to step by that interval, e.g. `range("0", "9", "2")` returns ["0","2","4","6","8"]
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `reject`
+
+This function searches through an array and rejects all elements that match the provided regular expression. For example, `reject(['aaa','bbb','ccc','aaaddd'], 'aaa')` returns ['bbb','ccc']. *Type*: rvalue

+
+#### `str2saltedsha512`
+
+This converts a string to a salted-SHA512 password hash, used for OS X versions >= 10.7. Given any string, this function returns a hex version of a salted-SHA512 password hash, which can be inserted into your Puppet
+manifests as a valid password attribute. *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `strftime`
+
+This function returns formatted time. For example,  `strftime("%s")` returns the time since epoch, and `strftime("%Y=%m-%d")` returns the date. *Type*: rvalue

+    $my_path4 = ['/var/lib/puppet','/usr/share/puppet']
+    validate_absolute_path($my_path4)
+    ```
+
+    The following values will fail, causing compilation to abort:
+
+    ```
+    validate_absolute_path(true)
+    validate_absolute_path('../var/lib/puppet')
+    validate_absolute_path('var/lib/puppet')
+    validate_absolute_path([ 'var/lib/puppet', '/var/foo' ])

+
+  The following values will pass:
+
+  ```
+  $my_array = [ 'one', 'two' ]

+
+#### `validate_augeas`
+
+Performs validation of a string using an Augeas lens.
+The first argument of this function should be the string to test, and the second argument should be the name of the Augeas lens to use. If Augeas fails to parse the string with the lens, the compilation aborts with a parse error.
+
+  A third optional argument lists paths which should **not** be found in the file. The `$file` variable points to the location of the temporary file being tested in the Augeas tree.
+
+  For example, to make sure your passwd content never contains user `foo`:
+
+  ```
+  validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/foo'])
+  ```
+
+  To ensure that no users use the '/bin/barsh' shell:
+
+  ```
+  validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/*[shell="/bin/barsh"]']
+  ```
+
+  You can pass a fourth argument as the error message raised and shown to the user:

+
+  ```
+  $iamtrue = true
+  validate_bool(true)
+  validate_bool(true, true, false, $iamtrue)
+  ```
+
+  The following values will fail, causing compilation to abort:
+
+  ```
+  $some_array = [ true ]
+  validate_bool("false")
+  validate_bool("true")
+  validate_bool($some_array)
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_cmd`
+
+Performs validation of a string with an external command. The first argument of this function should be a string to test, and the second argument should be a path to a test command taking a % as a placeholder for the file path (will default to the end of the command if no % placeholder given). If the command, launched against a tempfile containing the passed string, returns a non-null value, compilation will abort with a parse error.
+
+If a third argument is specified, this will be the error message raised and seen by the user.
+
+  ```
+  # Defaults to end of path
+  validate_cmd($sudoerscontent, '/usr/sbin/visudo -c -f', 'Visudo failed to validate sudoers content')
+  ```
+  ```
+  # % as file location
+  validate_cmd($haproxycontent, '/usr/sbin/haproxy -f % -c', 'Haproxy failed to validate config content')
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_hash`
+
+Validates that all passed values are hash data structures. Abort catalog compilation if any value fails this check.
+
+  The following values will pass:
+
+  ```
+  $my_hash = { 'one' => 'two' }
+  validate_hash($my_hash)
+  ```
+
+  The following values will fail, causing compilation to abort:
+
+  ```
+  validate_hash(true)
+  validate_hash('some_string')
+  $undefined = undef
+  validate_hash($undefined)
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_integer`
+
+Validate that the first argument is an integer (or an array of integers). Abort catalog compilation if any of the checks fail.
+    
+  The second argument is optional and passes a maximum. (All elements of) the first argument has to be less or equal to this max.
+
+  The third argument is optional and passes a minimum.  (All elements of) the first argument has to be greater or equal to this min.
+  If, and only if, a minimum is given, the second argument may be an empty string or undef, which will be handled to just check
+  if (all elements of) the first argument are greater or equal to the given minimum.
+
+  It will fail if the first argument is not an integer or array of integers, and if arg 2 and arg 3 are not convertable to an integer.
+
+  The following values will pass:
+
+  ```
+  validate_integer(1)
+  validate_integer(1, 2)
+  validate_integer(1, 1)
+  validate_integer(1, 2, 0)
+  validate_integer(2, 2, 2)
+  validate_integer(2, '', 0)
+  validate_integer(2, undef, 0)

+  validate_integer(2, $foo, 0)
+  validate_integer([1,2,3,4,5], 6)
+  validate_integer([1,2,3,4,5], 6, 0)
+  ```
+
+  * Plus all of the above, but any combination of values passed as strings ('1' or "1").
+  * Plus all of the above, but with (correct) combinations of negative integer values.
+
+  The following values will fail, causing compilation to abort:
+
+  ```
+  validate_integer(true)
+  validate_integer(false)
+  validate_integer(7.0)
+  validate_integer({ 1 => 2 })
+  $foo = undef
+  validate_integer($foo)
+  validate_integer($foobaridontexist)
+
+  validate_integer(1, 0)
+  validate_integer(1, true)
+  validate_integer(1, '')
+  validate_integer(1, undef)
+  validate_integer(1, , 0)
+  validate_integer(1, 2, 3)
+  validate_integer(1, 3, 2)
+  validate_integer(1, 3, true)
+  ```
+
+  * Plus all of the above, but any combination of values passed as strings ('false' or "false").
+  * Plus all of the above, but with incorrect combinations of negative integer values.
+  * Plus all of the above, but with non-integer crap in arrays or maximum / minimum argument.
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_numeric`
+
+Validate that the first argument is a numeric value (or an array of numeric values). Abort catalog compilation if any of the checks fail.
+
+  The second argument is optional and passes a maximum. (All elements of) the first argument has to be less or equal to this max.
+
+  The third argument is optional and passes a minimum.  (All elements of) the first argument has to be greater or equal to this min.
+  If, and only if, a minimum is given, the second argument may be an empty string or undef, which will be handled to just check
+  if (all elements of) the first argument are greater or equal to the given minimum.
+
+  It will fail if the first argument is not a numeric (Integer or Float) or array of numerics, and if arg 2 and arg 3 are not convertable to a numeric.
+
+  For passing and failing usage, see `validate_integer()`. It is all the same for validate_numeric, yet now floating point values are allowed, too.
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_re`
+
+Performs simple validation of a string against one or more regular expressions. The first argument of this function should be the string to
+test, and the second argument should be a stringified regular expression
+(without the // delimiters) or an array of regular expressions. If none
+of the regular expressions match the string passed in, compilation aborts with a parse error.
+
+  You can pass a third argument as the error message raised and shown to the user.
+
+  The following strings validate against the regular expressions:
+
+  ```
+  validate_re('one', '^one$')
+  validate_re('one', [ '^one', '^two' ])
+  ```
+
+  The following string fails to validate, causing compilation to abort:
+
+  ```
+  validate_re('one', [ '^two', '^three' ])
+  ```
+
+  To set the error message:
+
+  ```
+  validate_re($::puppetversion, '^2.7', 'The $puppetversion fact value does not match 2.7')
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_slength`
+

+
+  The following values pass:
+
+  ```
+  validate_slength("discombobulate",17)
+  validate_slength(["discombobulate","moo"],17)
+  ```
+
+  The following values fail:
+

+  validate_slength(["discombobulate","thermometer"],5)
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `validate_string`
+
+Validates that all passed values are string data structures. Aborts catalog compilation if any value fails this check.
+
+  The following values pass:
+
+  ```
+  $my_string = "one two"
+  validate_string($my_string, 'three')
+  ```
+
+  The following values fail, causing compilation to abort:
+
+  ```
+  validate_string(true)
+  validate_string([ 'some', 'array' ])
+  $undefined = undef
+  validate_string($undefined)
+  ```
+
+  *Type*: statement
+
+#### `values`
+
+When given a hash, this function returns the values of that hash.
+
+  *Examples:*
+
+  ```
+  $hash = {
+    'a' => 1,
+    'b' => 2,
+    'c' => 3,
+  }
+  values($hash)
+  ```
+
+  The example above returns [1,2,3].
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `values_at`
+
+Finds value inside an array based on location. The first argument is the array you want to analyze, and the second element can be a combination of:
+
+  * A single numeric index
+  * A range in the form of 'start-stop' (eg. 4-9)
+  * An array combining the above
+
+  For example, `values_at(['a','b','c'], 2)` returns ['c']; `values_at(['a','b','c'], ["0-1"])` returns ['a','b']; and `values_at(['a','b','c','d','e'], [0, "2-3"])` returns ['a','c','d'].
+
+  *Type*: rvalue
+
+#### `zip`
+
+Takes one element from first array and merges corresponding elements from second array. This generates a sequence of n-element arrays, where n is one more than the count of arguments. For example, `zip(['1','2','3'],['4','5','6'])` results in ["1", "4"], ["2", "5"], ["3", "6"]. *Type*: rvalue

+##Development
+
+Puppet Labs modules on the Puppet Forge are open projects, and community contributions are essential for keeping them great. We can’t access the huge number of platforms and myriad of hardware, software, and deployment configurations that Puppet is intended to serve.
+
+We want to keep it as easy as possible to contribute changes so that our modules work in your environment. There are a few guidelines that we need contributors to follow so that we can have a chance of keeping on top of things.
+
+You can read the complete module contribution guide on the [Puppet Labs wiki](http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/module-site/wiki/Module_contributing).
