In regard to: [Puppet Users] Optional values from Hiera (no default value),...:
Hello Puppet List,
I'm writing a module that should take an optional value and I want to
get it (amongst other places) from Hiera.
$repository = $::java_repository ? {
undef => hiera('java_repository')
default => $::java_repository,
}
hiera() can take a second argument which is the default you want to
supply if no data store provides a value. Before you ask, no, I don't
know where that's documented, but we've been using it for a while in
our puppet manifests and it has been mentioned on the list even today.
