Well, this is weird...
If I have this yaml file:
---
customer:
given: Dorothy
family: Gale
and this puppet code:
$t = extlookup("customer", '---', 'settings')
notice("$t['given']")
then the value displayed is:
givenDorothyfamilyGale['given']
which is pretty crappy. However, if I put the same thing in a template:
<%= t['given'] %>
and when the template runs, I get 'Dorothy', which is correct. So... what
should I be doing here? Should I just load up the entire thing into puppet
and use ruby magic inside templates to get the values I need? Why can't
puppet even print these values out? How do I access them in the puppet? The
language guide says I can do this...
