Howdy:
I need some help please to get hiera configuration data derived
from YAML, thru puppet. I have studied Internet search results and
puppet documentation on create_resources and custom defines but
need a little help along. I can print out the YAML from variables,
arrays, and, finally, hashes too from a puppet manifest.
One thing that is stumping me is how to access from the custom
define only the YAML element of server-a which is I believe is an
object of an array of hashes as I have the YAML laid out.
When I run this on client host server-a against the manifest this prints out in
the log:
Aug 17 12:59:09 puppet puppet-master[67407]: (Scope(Sshd_lookup[server-a]))
setting sshd_type: local
Aug 17 12:59:09 puppet puppet-master[67407]: (Scope(Sshd_lookup[server-b]))
setting sshd_type: local
Aug 17 12:59:09 puppet puppet-master[67407]: (Scope(Sshd_lookup[server-c]))
setting sshd_type: local
Aug 17 12:59:09 puppet puppet-master[67407]: (Scope(Sshd_lookup[server-d]))
setting sshd_type: local
I want it to print out just server-a's value. How do I do that?
Also, interestingly, it printed out each of the server names (keys?)
in the hash but the value of the server-a's sshd_auth entry.
My YAML, puppet manifest and error follow.
# cat common.yaml
---
searchdomain : 'example.com'
ssh_auth : ldap
servers :
server-a :
sshd_auth: "local"
ClientAliveInterval: "nil"
ClientAliveCountMax: "nil"
server-b :
sshd_auth: "local"
ClientAliveInterval: "nil"
ClientAliveCountMax: "nil"
server-c :
sshd_auth: "ldap"
ClientAliveInterval: "nil"
ClientAliveCountMax: "nil"
server-d :
sshd_auth: "ldap"
ClientAliveInterval: "10"
ClientAliveCountMax: "3"
# cat ../hiera.yaml
---
:backends:
- yaml
:logger: console
:hierarchy:
- %{hostname}
- common
:yaml:
:datadir: /usr/local/etc/puppet/hieradata
# cat Inuit.pp
class user {
$sshd_hash = hiera(servers)
create_resources('sshd_lookup', $sshd_hash)
}
define sshd_lookup ( $sshd_auth, $ClientAliveInterval, $ClientAliveCountMax,
$server_role, $location ) {
$data = hiera_hash('servers')
$sshd_type = $data[$hostname]['sshd_auth']
notice ("setting sshd_type: $sshd_type" )
}
Thanks,
