[Puppet Users] How to pass a hash to a variable with Puppet Enterprise?

[Chris Neal]

Hi all,

This is most likely a noob question, so I apologize.  I've googled as well 
and was not able to find an answer to this seemingly basic question.
I'm using Puppet Enterprise 3.1.2 along with this module to install/manage 
Elasticsearch:  
https://forge.puppetlabs.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/0.2.3

I've added the elasticsearch class to my node definition, and when I try 
and pass the hash to the 'config' variable, my runs fail with various 
errors about the parameter being a string, not a hash.  

I've tried:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   config                   => {
     'node'                 => {
       'name'               => 'elasticsearch001'
     },
     'index'                => {
       'number_of_replicas' => '0',
       'number_of_shards'   => '5'
     },
     'network'              => {
       'host'               => $::ipaddress
     }
   }
 }

and also:

config                   => {
     'node'                 => {
       'name'               => 'elasticsearch001'
     },
     'index'                => {
       'number_of_replicas' => '0',
       'number_of_shards'   => '5'
     },
     'network'              => {
       'host'               => $::ipaddress
     }
   }

and also:

{
     'node'                 => {
       'name'               => 'elasticsearch001'
     },
     'index'                => {
       'number_of_replicas' => '0',
       'number_of_shards'   => '5'
     },
     'network'              => {
       'host'               => $::ipaddress
     }

All result in something like this:

====================
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
" config => { 'node' => { 'name' => 'elasticsearch001' }, 'index' => { 
'number_of_replicas' => '0', 'number_of_shards' => '5' }, 'network' => { 
'host' => $::ipaddress } }" is not a Hash. It looks to be a String at 
/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/elasticsearch/manifests/init.pp:242 on node 
n6.example.com 

Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog 

Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
====================

How exactly would I pass a hash to this variable so that it will work?

Thanks so much.
Chris
