Just as alternative you may consider using execs... (I wouldn't recommend it though)
exec { 'this will output stuff':
path => '/bin',
command => 'echo Hello World!',
logoutput => true,
}
So when you run puppet you should find some output like so:
notice: /Stage[main]//Exec[this will output stuff]/returns: Hello World!
notice: /Stage[main]//Exec[this will output stuff]/returns: executed successfully
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.08 seconds
The first line being logged output.
