Title: Message Title

Erik Hansen created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6711 Puppet lookup doesn't know about custom facts Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2016/09/16 4:22 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Erik Hansen I've played around with this for a while and I can't figure out why custom facts are sometimes interpolated inside a hiera.yaml file, and sometimes not (only in the context of puppet lookup) hiera.yaml file for a test module: --- version: 4 datadir: data hierarchy: - name: "location" backend: yaml path: "%{location}"   - name: "common" backend: yaml Custom fact resolving: hiera4test]# facter -p location cdc Output of puppet lookup: hiera4test]# puppet lookup hiera4test::nameservers --explain Merge strategy first Data Binding "hiera" No such key: "hiera4test::nameservers" Data Provider "EnvironmentDataProvider" No such key: "hiera4test::nameservers" Module "hiera4test" using Data Provider "Hiera Data Provider, version 4" ConfigurationPath "/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules/hiera4test/hiera.yaml" Merge strategy first Data Provider "location" Path "/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules/hiera4test/data/.yaml" Original path: "%{location}" Path not found Data Provider "common" Path "/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules/hiera4test/data/common.yaml" Original path: "common" No such key: "hiera4test::nameservers" At the same time, puppet apply seems to find the key/value without issues: hiera4test]# puppet apply -e 'include hiera4test' Notice: Compiled catalog for pe-201620-master.example.com in environment production in 0.39 seconds Notice: nameservers: [10.123.204.30, 10.123.205.30] Notice: /Stage[main]/Hiera4test/Notify[nameservers: [10.123.204.30, 10.123.205.30]]/message: defined 'message' as 'nameservers: [10.123.204.30, 10.123.205.30]' Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029-sha1:ae256fe) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
