similar to: best practice for publishing modules that use Hiera?

I''ve begun using Hiera in combination with Foreman, primarily storing data that is best left in Array/Hash form. I''d like to be able to have a module, in this case BackupPC, query all the Hiera data for each node where the backup directories/databases are stored. Then use all that information on the BackupPC server to generate proper configuration files for each

Morning All I''m trying to use Hiera with Puppet 3.0 to streamline some of my module configuration... However I''m having issues using the ''*%{::clientcert}*'' variable as part of the hierarchy... Currently, my *hiera.yaml* file looks like: --- :backends: - yaml - json :yaml: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata :json: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata

Hi: I work on puppet 3 and hiera, but i cannt load a yaml file on a subdir. my hiera.yaml looks like: --- :backends: - yaml - json :yaml: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata :json: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata :hierarchy: - "servidores/%{clientcert}" - %{::ve} - common :puppet: :datasource: data problem is on "servidores/%{clientcert}". If it is %{::clientcert}

Hi. I have an interesting use case. OSSEC is security tool based on server-client architecture. Server generates keys for agents, and every agent has different key. Now I want to distribute these keys via puppet. I''ve come accross hiera and installed it, and it works superbly, but how to store per-node key in hiera? This is my idea: hiera,yaml: --- :hierarchy: -

Hi, I''ve just got hiera deployed into a new puppet environment, and have defined a class as follows: modules/role/manifests/ui.pp ===================== class role::ui ( $public_hostname ) { notify {''role::ui::notify'': message => "role::ui configured for ${::data_center}; hostname: $public_hostname", } } This is then included into

Hello, I''ve something strange : When I modify my hierarchy in my hiera.yaml, it can take up to several hours, for the modification to work. eg : I create a subdir in my hieradata, move all the concerned files into, modify my hiera.yaml > from : > :hierarchy: > - %{operatingsystem} > to : > :hierarchy: > - *os/*%{operatingsystem} > but the changes

Hello, just upgraded Hiera from ver. 1.2.1 to 1.3.0 and broke our puppet environment. :) It seems that there are sizeable changes related to variable interpolation Here is an error during Puppet run: Error: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error Hiera::InterpolationLoop: Detected in [::environment] at /home/ubuntu/environments/project_dev/manifests/site.pp:35 on node

Hi, I''m trying to do something with Hiera, whereby the ''default'' configuration for a class is within it''s role/profile manifest, which can then be overridden on a node specific basis by hiera. As an example; class profile::base { class { ''::ntp'': servers => [''a'', ''b'', ''c'',

Hi, I''m using Puppet 3.2.1 and heavily relying on hiera data bindings. I have the following situation: class software ( $my_content = undef, ) { file { ''/path/to/file'': content => $software::my_content, } } in hieradata/software.yaml (hiera.yaml seems ok): software::my_content: template(''mymodule/myfile.erb'') With this configuration I

Hi guys, i have a hiera.yaml config file like this: --- :hierarchy: - %{env}/%{tmp_module_name} - %{env}/%{tmp_module_name}.common :backends: - yaml :yaml: :datadir: ''/etc/puppet/hieradata'' I also have a test/some_module.yaml file like this: --- db: root : pass port : ''3306'' I am also using the hiera function

I just installed puppet 3 (3.0.0-0.1rc3puppetlabs1) on a 32bit Ubuntu 12.04 ''server'' VM. I used the packages for the install. I then copied over my existing modules and manifests from my production 2.7.x puppet master, and also my hiera.yaml and hieradata/*. When I run puppet agent --test I get the following: Error: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error

Hi there, I''m running into an problem which I can resolve. It is bugging me for couple of days now. Goal: CentOS 6.4 freshly installed incl puppet 3.2.3 and I want to install puppet master, puppetdb, mod_passenger & apache with "puppet apply". So when this is complete, I should have an puppet master server running so I can create new hosts etc. So this is the command

Trying to figure out the erwbgy/system plugin and just getting stuck.. first run it did some changes, but it ignored parameters for ntp and now its not refreshing if I update the yaml at all, Im slightly lost at what I may be missing :) hiera.yaml --- :hierarchy: - %{certname} - %{environment} - global - %{environment}/common :backends: - yaml :yaml: :datadir:

Hello, I''m trying to come up with a generic wrapper class for use with hiera so that I can have a service that is completely managed and configured via hiera and its own puppet module to be notified by Puppet of changes to a file or other resource managed by a different class/module. The example I''m using here is the management of /etc/security/limits.conf for a service account

Hey there, I''m new to hiera and I'' m looking to configure it to use multiple environments. I''m able to query hiera keys from using the hiera CLI, however my clients seem to be having problems identifying the look up variables. *On the puppet master, CLI query* [root@puppet-dev puppet]# hiera -a sshpackages environment=development ["openssh",

Hi, I have a problem with running puppet with hiera based data. I am trying to cleanup user accounts on a range of servers (to have the same uid/gid). When I create existing account but with different uid/gid it doesn''t change files group ownership so I need to run a script which cleanups after cleanup ;-) I use the following code: --- :backends: - yaml :hierarchy: -

I''m not sure at all what''s going on here, but I''ve spent a lot of time reading over the puppet hiera docs and setting everything up, but when I run puppet agent it just seems to ignore the hiera setup completely. Both the puppet master and agent nodes have exactly the same versions of puppet and hiera (installed via the official puppet APT repository). I''ve
