So you'd agree that it should have required an explicit definition of the
inputs?

Any help in debugging would be appreciated!

For reasons that somewhat mystify me, the template is installing with
no
errors now.  I fixed it by removing the inputs definition I had in the
terminal.yaml file, which is counter-intuitive.  I used to have, in the
node type definition:

   interfaces:
     Standard:
       create:
         implementation: cloudify-utilities-plugin >
cloudify_terminal.tasks.run
         inputs:
           calls:
             type: list
             entry_schema: call_type

I defined the inputs because I thought I had to.  This was the source
of
the error I mentioned in another thread (regarding yaml-1.1).  In any
case,
by commenting it out, I got no validation errors, and the terminal
calls
are made as expected.  In the node template, I still pass inputs:

     interfaces:
       Standard:
         create:
           inputs:
             calls:
               - action: exit

This doesn't seem as though it should be possible.  In any case, the
latest
has been pushed to the repo:

For those interested, I'm in the process of implementing a TOSCA
template
for the initial deployment and configuration of a Fortigate VNF in
Openstack.  It uses a couple of borrowed Cloudify plugins: one for
Openstack itself (https://github.com/cloudify-
cosmo/cloudify-openstack-
plugin), and one for the terminal plugin (part of the Cloudify
incubator
"utilities" project (https://github.com/cloudify-
incubator/cloudify-utilities-plugin).

The basic idea is that a network and router is created with public
access,
and a private network with no direct public access.  In between is
the
Fortigate firewall VNF that controls access to instances running on
the
private network.  The initial template just sets up the VNF and
networks.
The next template (TBD) will deploy a service on the private network
and
reconfigure the firewall to allow access via port forwarding.   This
is
very much a work in progress (the VNF configuration isn't quite
working
yet):
