Hi Jon,

Thanks for your tip. I had made a typo in my yaml which debug mode picked up. I fixed it, and now your command works when run on the puppetmaster but the same error persists when the variable is accessed either from a manifest or from a template during a puppet agent run.

I'm wondering if it might be something to do with the agents not syncing the hiera data store, perhaps? I'm new to hiera...

Cheers,
Jonathan

Hi,

Have you tried doing the Hiera lookup on the command line to double check it can be read?

    $ hiera -d -c /path/to/hiera.yaml jrs_config_server1 fqdn=hostname


Cheers,

Jon

    Hi,

    I'm having a problem accessing Hiera data from within templates.
    Yes, I
    know this is not the recommended way to access Hiera data, but in
    my use
    case I think it will be easier overall.

    In manifests, this code works:

    {
       ip => hiera('jrs_config_server1'),
    }

    In a template, part of the same module as the manifest, this does
    not work:

    ipaddr = <%= scope.function_hiera(["jrs_config_server1"]) %>

    It fails with this error:

    Could not find data item jrs_config_server1 in any Hiera data file
    and
    no default supplied

    The value of " jrs_config_server1" is in Hiera, specific to the
    fqdn of
    the node. I'm struggling to see why it would not be working. Any
    ideas?

    Cheers,
    Jonathan
