Hello, everyone. I have made a small useful open source project for Puppet/Hiera, so I hope you can excuse me a bit of advertisement of it for greater good.
https://github.com/desertkun/hiera-editor Basically it takes editing Hiera configurations to a new level. It parses modules with puppet-strings to extract class information like field names, types and doc strings, and retrieves default values of class fields by doing best-effort compilation (with puppet-parser) of Puppet AST on your machine. So no more typos and less of "commit-deploy-check" cycles. The goal of the project is to help manage servers with Puppet to those who far away from the back-end, including Puppet itself, like "I need to deploy nglinx but I have installed debian for the first time". So if you have a project that complex that requires Puppet to deploy it, having some tool to introduce Puppet to end users of your project might improve the learning curve. Would really appreciate any input on the idea, including concerns like "there's no need for this" as I just have made the project public and still not sure if I should continue.
