Description
In the current implementation of interfaces, when invoking an indirector action through the command-line you may specify the terminus using the “—from” option, e.g.
puppet catalog find <name> --from yaml
However when invoking the interface action from within Ruby you must set the terminus globally:
Puppet::Interface::Catalog.set_terminus :yaml
Puppet::Interface::Catalog.find(<name>)
This carries the risk that a user of the interface action will forget to reset the terminus back to its original value. Also, it would be nice if we could integrate the “—from” option into an options hash to the interface action (see #6758), so that invoking the interface action from within Ruby would look similar to invoking it from the command line:
Puppet::Interface::Catalog.find(<name>, :from => :yaml)
