Perhaps make it a defined type and use the create resources function. I
can't really think of any other way to correctly scope the various
parameters. You'd have to tweak your yaml slightly...
---
#icecast
type: vanilla
icecast_clients:
client1:
cid: 999
cid_hostname: icecast1
cid_ipaddress: 192.168.254.12
password: WhatYoSay?
port: 200
concurrency: 50
num_encoders: 2
client2:
cid: 998
cid_hostname: icecast2
cid_ipaddress: 192.168.254.13
password: NoWay!
port: 201
concurrency: 25
num_encoders: 3
define icecast_client($cid, $cid_hostname, $cid_ipaddress, $password,
$port, $concurrency, num_encoders) {
file { "/home/icecast/${cid}.icecast.xml":
ensure => file,
content => template('icecast/icecast.xml.erb'),
}
}
$icecast_clients = hiera('icecast_clients')
create_resources(icecast_client, $icecast_clients)
You could use hiera_hash if you wanted to merge multiple levels of your
hierarchy.
You could also use the cid in place of client1, client2, etc, then you
could remove the $cid parameter in the defined type and just use $title.
