You can read the hash directly, create_resource is not needed (may or may not
be desired)
$user_defs = hiera('os_users') will give you the full hash
What I tend to do for this type of data structure is:
$user_defs = hiera('os_users')
$user_keys = keys($user_defs)
if is_array($user_keys) {
process_users { $user_keys:; }
}
define process_users {
# Do whatever you want for each element of the hash
# $name will be the hash key
# $user_defs[$name] is the hash of the current item
# $user_defs[$name]['comment'] to access the user's comment field
}

Could you show your solution, please ?
I would like to see how you did it.

Using the create_resource to convert YAML to a hash array, then I can query
retrieve every individual value. If there is better way, feel free to share
with group.

I have a yaml data file containing user account with following
information.#more users.yaml---os_users: user1: locked: false comment: System

I can search os_users information like following:#hiera -c /etc/hiera.yaml
os_users{"user1"=>{"groups"=>["admin", "sudonopw"], "locked"=>false,
"comment"=>"System Operator", "uid"=>"700", "sshkeys"=>["ssh-rsa
AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAQEAwLBhQefRiXHSbVNZYKu2o8VWJjZJ/B4LqICXuxhiiNSCmL8j+5zE/VLPIMeDqNQt8L"],
"gid"=>"700"}, "user2"=>{"groups"=>["admin", "sudonopw"], "locked"=>true,
"comment"=>"Test Locked Account", "uid"=>"701", "sshkeys"=>["ssh-rsa
AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAQEAwLBhQefRiXHSbVNZYKu2o8VWJjZJ/B4LqICXuxhiiNSCm"],
"gid"=>"701"}}
My question is how I can get value of os_users -> user1 -> sshkeys. I
tried:#hiera -c /etc/hiera.yaml os_users[user1[sshkeys]]nil
Could you please advise whether this is doable or direct me to some document?
Thanks in advance,
carl
