Hi,
If you have Foreman configured as an ENC, the location parameter will be
available to Hiera as a fact. e.g. In the master section of puppet.conf,
you'll have something like (node.rb comes from Foreman):
external_nodes = /etc/puppet/node.rb
Then in hiera.yaml you can reference the location fact with
#{::location}. Parameters such as location are passed to puppet from an
ENC through the hash structure described at
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/external_nodes.html#enc-output-format
Cheers,
Richard

Hi Richard,
Just wondering, I do have now a locations configured on my Foreman
(:locations_enabled: true), how can I access this data?
For example if I have a Facter variable named $location or $os_version
so I can use it on mypuppet scripts. How can I use Foreman locations
variable?
Hope I made myself clear :)
Thanks,
EddieM

You need to create a hiera.yaml config file.
The config file may look like this:
:backends:
- yaml
:yaml:
:datadir: ‘/etc/puppet/data’
:hierachy:
- “nodes/#{::certname}”
- “location/#{::timezone}”
- global
Further to Martin's comment, you may be interested to know
that the Foreman location and environment are available to
Hiera, so you might prefer to use those rather than the
timezone fact. E.g.
:backends:
- yaml
:yaml:
:datadir: ‘/etc/puppet/data’
:hierachy:
- “nodes/#{::certname}”
- “location/#{::location}”
- global
