How to use "*" in nodeName - powershell

Question

Say I have 2 roles in my DSC setup and I have variable amount of nodes in my setup:
$configdata = #{
AllNodes = #(
#{
NodeName = "*Web*" # < problem lies here
# can be prodWeb## or devWeb##
Role = "IIS", "basic"
}
#{
NodeName = "*"
Role = "basic"
}
)
}
DSC resource:
Configuration CFG
{
$AllNodes.where{ $_.Role.Contains("Basic") }.NodeName
{
...
}
$AllNodes.where{ $_.Role.Contains("IIS") }.NodeName
{
...
}
}
Can I achieve that?

Answer 1

The AllNodes entry in configuration data is an array of hashtables. Each hashtable needs to have a key NodeName. The value will get substituted when the expression evaluates. So a nodename like web* will not work

Answer 2

So, basically what I've done is this:
Configuration Windows
{
node $allnodes.NodeName {
switch ($Node.Role) {
"Role1" {
...
}
"Role2" {
...
}
"Role3" {
...
}
}
}
}
My configuration data:
#{ AllNodes = #( #{ NodeName = "web"; Role = "Role1", "Role2" } ) }
And for another set of nodes:
#{ AllNodes = #( #{ NodeName = "other"; Role = "Role1", "Role3" } ) }
I'm using Azure Automation to assign configurations to nodes, so it doesn't check the node name, it just applies whatever roles the configuration had at compile time.
