You are missing that "automatic" in "automatic parameter lookup" means
that it does this for you - no need to call lookup at all.
Simply do:
class foo($nodetype) {
# whatever
}
And in your hiera (somewhere in a yaml file):
foo::nodetype: this_is_the_nodetype
Then you can just do this:
include foo
And it works.
Hope this helps clarify how it works.

Note that all functions starting with "hiera" are deprecated. Use the
"lookup()" function instead. Google for the docs how to replace
"hiera_include" with a call to "lookup()" and an iteration.
It is much better to use Automatic Parameter Lookup (APL) instead of
doing explicit lookups. Your problem was that they key "nodetype"
should
have been "foo::nodetype" - that would make the correct binding for APL
to work.
