Looks like I figured it out. I was passing the hiera variable
incorrectly. Changed from
passing in to class
String $nodetype,
to
$nodetype=hiera('nodetype')
Note that all functions starting with "hiera" are deprecated. Use the
"lookup()" function instead. Google for the docs how to replace
"hiera_include" with a call to "lookup()" and an iteration.
It is much better to use Automatic Parameter Lookup (APL) instead of
doing explicit lookups. Your problem was that they key "nodetype" should
have been "foo::nodetype" - that would make the correct binding for APL
to work.
Best,

that seems to have done the trick.

Hello,
I am testing out hiera and trying to pass some hiera values to a
module so that it can do specific tasks for a given node which does
not seem to be working. Here is my setup:

# puppet lookup

nodetype

Not sure what I am missing here, but any guidance would be helpful.
Also, let me know if there is a better way to tackle this.
Thanks,
