Hello,
There are a few issues with your example that need to be fixed, to make it work.
As a start, you need to prefix certain keywords in /etc/hiera.yaml with a colon
(:). I have tested using this setup:
---
:backends:
- yaml
:hierarchy:
- node/%{::fqdn}
- "%{::environment}"
- global
:yaml:
:datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata
Apart from that, you are querying hiera using the node=puppetmaster fact, but
in /etc/hiera.yaml you are using the fact fqdn as one of the hierarchy parts.
So, switching to using 'hiera webserver ::fqdn=puppetmaster' should work.

Subject: [Puppet Users] Problem in looking up key value from hieradata
Hi All,
I want to integrate hiera with puppet conifguration tool for managing my data
This is my setup that I have
puppetmaster version = 3.6.2
hiera version = 1.3.4
This is what i defined in my puppet.conf configuration file of puppetmaster
hiera_config = /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml
This is how my hiera.yaml looks...
---
backends:
- yaml
hierarchy:
- node/%{::fqdn}
- "%{::environment}"
- global
yaml:
datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata
cd /etc/puppet/hieradata/node
[root@puppetmaster node]# cat puppetmaster.yaml
---
webserver: puppetmaster
when trying to lookup hiera key value, I'm getting nil value. Could you please
help me where I'm making mistakes?
[root@puppetmaster node]# hiera -d webserver ::node=puppetmaster
