puppet-macdefaults's Issues

How do I delete a key

The following manifest:

class bootstrap::munki($domain = '/Library/Preferences/ManagedInstalls.plist') {
include macdefaults
mac-defaults {'InstallAppleSoftwareUpdates':
domain => $domain,
key => 'InstallAppleSoftwareUpdates',
value => 'true',
type => 'bool',
}
mac-defaults {'SoftwareUpdateServerURL':
action => 'delete',
domain => $domain,
key => 'SoftwareUpdateServerURL',
value => 'http://fs2.whitbyschool.net:8088/index.sucatalog',
type => 'string',
}
}

when I run, I get "Error: Invalid parameter action"

Repeat runs

Hello. I use mac-defaults to manage several values. I have an entry that tries to reapply that manifest on each puppet run. All the rest of my entries only apply once unless changed. This is the first time I've tried an array.

Non-working example (This will apply on every puppet run)
mac-defaults { "additionalhttpheaders":
domain => '/Library/Preferences/ManagedInstalls',
key => 'AdditionalHttpHeaders',
type => 'array',
value => "Authorization: Basic XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",

Working examples (These will only apply once unless changed).
mac-defaults { "softwarerepourl":
domain => '/Library/Preferences/ManagedInstalls',
key => 'SoftwareRepoURL',
type => 'string',
value => "http://munkiserver1.orchard.fruit.com/munki_repo",

mac-defaults { "installapplesoftwareupdates":
domain => '/Library/Preferences/ManagedInstalls',
key => 'InstallAppleSoftwareUpdates',
type => 'bool',
value => "true",

Support for setting empty string value

I would like to set Munki SoftwareUpdateServerURL to an empty string instead of deleting it completely. I looked at the init.pp briefly and it seems that an empty string is correctly written but incorrectly identified as a value that needs to be changed. Perhaps checking if the value is empty and only check the defaults command exit code instead of trying to grep the output would help?
