module Puppet::Parser::Functions
  newfunction(:bool2str, :type => :rvalue, :doc => <<-EOS
    Converts a boolean to a string using optionally supplied arguments. The
    optional second and third arguments represent what true and false will be
    converted to respectively. If only one argument is given, it will be
    converted from a boolean to a string containing 'true' or 'false'.

    *Examples:*

    bool2str(true)                    => 'true'
    bool2str(true, 'yes', 'no')       => 'yes'
    bool2str(false, 't', 'f')         => 'f'

    Requires a single boolean as an input.

    false_string = arguments[2] || 'false'
