Hi Alexander, If you use the roles and profiles design pattern [0] then as suggested at [1], your profile class could look up the required parameters from hiera, do any validation required on it, then pass that data in as standard class parameters. Regards, Matt. [0] http://www.craigdunn.org/20

[Puppet Users] Mixing hiera and site.pp

2015-08-05 Thread Alexander Dacre
Hi, I'm going through an initial deployment of Puppet and was looking to use hiera as much as possible, but it seems that many existing modules do not have hiera support. The question I have is, is it 'OK' to have some bits of configuration for a node defined in hiera, and others in site.pp?
