Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Hiera vs OpenLDAP
Hi, Yes it would. Could als be the quickest solution in the short term. Are you using ldap as ENC also ? (because we do). Then maybe adding class parameters to the puppet-ldap code should be the proper way. On 10/30/2013 07:51 PM, Steven Jonthen wrote: Hi guys, First of all thank you for your hints.

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Hiera vs OpenLDAP
Are you using ldap as your ENC ? If so, all settings defined in the puppet ldap schema are available as global vars in your manifest. Unfortunately, class parameters are not supported (at the moment), so maybe the ldap part in the puppet code could be extended to support that. I heard more people looking for that functionality in the ldap ENC code. You could indeed write your own hiera ldap backend, but I have some doubts about the speed. Here is another example of an ldap backend : http://forge.ircam.fr/p/hiera-ldap-backend/ It is one of the things i'm also looking into, but i have to install ldap with puppet first, and that needs some more code to write, to support the dynamic ldap config in our puppet ldap module.
