symbolized facts deprecation

With the release of rspec-puppet-facts 6.0.0 we will remove support for symbolized facts. At the moment people typically use this in their unit files:

on_supported_os.each do |os, os_facts|
  case os_facts[:os]['name']
  when 'Archlinux'
    context 'on Archlinux' do
      it { is_expected.to contain_package('borg') }
    end
  when 'Ubuntu'
  end
end

For history reasons the first level of facts were symbols. You will have to update it to strings with the 6.0.0 release:

on_supported_os.each do |os, os_facts|
  case os_facts['os']['name']
  when 'Archlinux'
    context 'on Archlinux' do
      it { is_expected.to contain_package('borg') }
    end
  when 'Ubuntu'
  end
end

As an alternative you can configure the old behaviour:

RSpec.configure do |c|
  c.facterdb_string_keys = false
end

Use facterdb_string_keys configuration option for custom facts #157 (jordanbreen28)

2.0.0 (2020-08-05)

Require Ruby >= 2.4
Automatically find the latest facter version in the database. Previously a very slow and undeterministic approach was taken when an exact match of the Facter version wasn't found.. The new approach is to take the closest version that is still older than the specified version.
Fix Amazon Linux 2 fact lookup
Log which facts could not be found
Remove json as a dependency

2019-12-11 - Release 1.10.0

Automatically select the default Facter version based on the Puppet version. The available Puppet version is matched against a mapping of Puppet and Facter versions included in the puppet-agent all-in-one packages to find the most suitable Facter version.

2019-07-31 - Release 1.9.6

Suppress the warning message generated when the Augeas gem is not available.
Searching through older Facter releases for a fact set that does not exist no longer causes it to hang indefinitely.
The operatingsystemrelease values are now correctly escaped when building the FacterDB filters, allowing the use of operatingsystemrelease values that contain special regular expression characters like parentheses.

2019-07-29 - Release 1.9.5

The default version of Facter to search for is now configurable with RSpec.configuration.default_facter_version.
When passing a :supported_os hash to on_supported_os(), single operatingsystemrelease values can now be specified as a String rather than an Array with a single String.
Dependency on the mcollective-client gem removed. The mco_version fact will now optionally be set if the gem is installed.
The fact names can now be provided to tests as Strings instead of Symbols by setting RSpec.configuration.facterdb_string_keys to true.
Dropped support for Ruby < 2.1.0

2019-03-22 - Release 1.9.4

Take two on getting rubygems autodeploy going. So much for docs, looking at other projects for this one.

2019-03-22 - Release 1.9.3

Various CI updates - Garrett Honeycutt
Symbolize hash keys in register_custom_fact https://github.com/mcanevet/rspec-puppet-facts/pull/77

2018-10-24 - Release 1.9.2

Catch the right LoadError on missing augeas gem. Thanks to baurmatt for the quick fix, and rodjek for dealing with the testing

2018-10-24 - Release 1.9.1

Do not rely on features of Augeas because Puppet 6
