Hi! I am using environments in my puppet setup, and would like to do the
same for hiera. I used to have this sort of hierarchy:
:hierarchy: - hosts/%{fqdn}
- domain/%{domain}
- whatever/%{some_fact}
- common
with a yaml datadir:
:yaml:
:datadir: - /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/hieradata
I would like to append %{environment} to my datadir in order to get
separation, however it looks like I can''t and will have to do this:
:hierarchy: - %{environment}/hosts/%{fqdn}
- %{environment}/domain/%{domain}
- %{environment}/whatever/%{some_fact}
- %{environment}/common
Can anyone verify that appending %{environment} to datadir won''t work?
Does anyone have a good way of separating hiera environments?
Thanks a lot!
Guy

I can attest to the fact that it works fine here is my:
:yaml:
:datadir: ''/etc/puppet/env/%{environment}/hieradata''
I am having no issues with that.

In this case single or double quotes should both work. It''s my understanding that hiera.yaml is a data file that is going to be parsed and then consumed by Puppet where things like variable interpolation would happen. There isn''t any variable interpolation during the parsing so single quotes are more correct. http://www.yaml.org/YAML_for_ruby.html#single-quoted_strings Ramin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hmmm . . anyone have any idea why environment would not be getting
interpolated?
Cannot find datafile
/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/%{environment}/hieradata/10-host/gmatzpupnode.yaml
I have the following in my node''s puppet.conf [agent] section:
environment = default
thanks again,
Guy

Have you configured a default environment on the Puppet master? Puppet uses the environment ''production'' when nothing is set. Also does ./puppet/default/hieradata/ exist and are the the rest of the paths correct based on what you''ve set in your hiera.yaml?
