What you are looking at is external data in YAML format, such as would be 
*consumed* by Hiera.  It is an input, not an output, and in general it is 
not monolithic -- the data for a given node is often spread across multiple 
files.  Moreover, the data, based on those files, that Hiera feeds to 
Puppet are context-sensitive in general: Hiera can interpolate contextual 
values based on Puppet variables into the data and feed the result back to 
Puppet, or it can even use such contextual data to select from which files 
to draw input in the first place.
 
Bottom line: it's still unclear what you want -- Hiera input or Hiera 
output -- and if the latter, it doesn't exist in any objective, 
context-insensitive sense.

Hi,

Look: 

hiera-file:  designed by Adrien Thebo to manage a data type that previously 
could not be stored in a healthy way in Hiera, that is, simple files.

or 

hiera-http and hiera-mysql: are other powerful backends Hiera written by 
Craig Dunn. They allow us to recover our data either via a REST interface 
or MySQL queries on a database.

2015-09-04 Thread Sergiu Cornea
Thank you John,

Thank you for your answer and sorry for the ambiguity.

The YAML file I am referring to is the node's YAML file such as in the 
Puppet's NTP complete example:

--- classes: - ntp - apache - postfix ntp::restrict: - ntp::autoupdate: 
false ntp::enable: true ntp::servers: - 0.us.pool.ntp.org iburst - 
1.us.pool.ntp.org iburst - 2.us.pool.ntp.org iburst - 3.us.pool.ntp.org 
iburst

What I was looking for it was a way of displaying the node's YAML file 
using Puppet or Foreman's Web API.

Once again thank you for your help.

Kind regards,
Sergiu

By "that YAML file" do you mean the node's most recent catalog in YAML 
format?  Do you mean a freshly-built catalog in YAML format?  The ENC 
output for that node?  Something else?

I'm afraid that doesn't help clarify just what YAML you want.

Probably, once we figure out what the "this" is.
