Input parameters undef

[dasousa]

We use masterless puppet to build images for later deployment. Filebeat is installed as part of a base system build. Later, various services can add Filebeat inputs (FKA prospectors) as needed. Service and base system are two separate puppet executions.

Unfortunately, the current version of puppet-filebeat is causing a problem with this approach. Various parameters in the input.pp manifest, such as filebeat::fields_under_root, and filebeat::major_version, are being set to undef. This causes errors in the puppet execution.

Are there any suggestions for how to work around this issue?
