It still works this way: 

[root ~]# puppet agent --configprint ssldir 
/var/lib/puppet/ssl 
[root ~]# puppet master --configprint ssldir 
/var/lib/puppet-master/ssl 

as opposed to: 

[root ~]# puppet config print ssldir 
/var/lib/puppet/ssl

OK, thanks. Based on the doc, it looks like if I have a host that acts as a 
master and agent and the [master] and [agent] sections contain different values 
for environment, then there is no way to get "puppet config print environment" 
to print the value from the [agent] section. 






This actually used to works in 2.7.x by running "puppet config print 
environment --mode agent" 

The --mode option was removed and replaced with --run_mode in 3.x 

https://github.com/jjulien/puppet/commit/f4e229ee5a0a1d6a62735eb434eb2c284b7f517d#diff-022bd17388c88fcad57e6f36fff407fb
 
as a result of some concerns expressed in 
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16189 

This does not appear to be working though, as an error is thrown when 
--run_mode is being specified and the bootstrapping of the run to a default of 
"agent" also does not appear to be functioning properly. 

You may want to use an iniparser to gather this info until the bug can be 
fixed. Another option is to use the following ruby code: 

require 'puppet' 
app = Puppet::Application::Agent.new() 
app.preinit 
Puppet.settings.parse 
Puppet[:daemonize] = false 
app.setup 

# You can now access your [agent] config settings like so: 
puts "Agent environment: #{Puppet[:environment]}" 

This works fine on a normal functioning puppet client. One bug that will cause 
an endless loop for you is if your certificate and private key don't match. 
Probably quite the corner case for most, but I'm in the middle of some rigorous 
testing around Puppet monitoring and have come across that situation.
