Description

Here’s a fun feature request. This isn’t a huge deal for me but I think it would be awesome.

It would be great if I could tell puppetd to do just one resource (and any dependencies) after receiving the catalog. This mainly comes up when testing. It also comes up when I have no patience :) Since puppetd has the entire catalog it should be possible to do any sort of resource, including defines.

Tags aren’t good enough for this sort of situation because I want to do one specific (and effectively random) resource.

Another good idea, falling under the general category of “ways of running partial catalogs”.
