Puppet users - Jan 2014 - howto determine a users homedir in a class file

So ...
I am tasked with managing ssh keys for which I want to use puppet to do the 
deployment.
I dont know ahead of time which users will using/assigned keys so, my 
question is.

how to determine the homedir of any user? is there a variable present with 
this info without resorting to an exec?

Not all users have /home/$USER homedirs, (eg apache=/var/www, 
puppet=/var/lib/puppet), 

I need to create a .ssh dir in the users homedir and copy some private keys 
in there. 
The authorized_keys type includes a user property, so the public key is 
easy.

kinda stumped ...
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Andrew
