Jesse Reynolds created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6899 puppet lookup ignores --hiera_config option Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 4.8.0 Assignee: Unassigned Components: CLI Created: 2016/11/07 4:13 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Jesse Reynolds It seems that the puppet lookup command ignores the --hiera_config option. When I'm hacking on a control-repo I want to be able to test that the per-environment hiera.yaml file at the top level of the control-repo works in isolation, that is I don't want to have to deploy the code to a puppet master in order to test that the data lookups are working correctly. Steps to reproduce: In an arbitrary directory, set up the following structure: hiera.yaml hieradata/common.yaml Put the following into these files: hiera.yaml: noformat — version: 4 datadir: hieradata hierachy: name: "nodes/%{::fqdn}" backend: yaml name: base backend: yaml noformat hieradata/base.yaml noformat — message: "Testing" noformat Try and perform a lookup: noformat puppet lookup --hiera_config hiera.yaml message noformat Expected result: "Testing" Actual result: "" Trying to get some debug info: noformat $ puppet lookup --debug --hiera_config hiera.yaml message | grep hieradata Debug: hiera(): Cannot find datafile /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hieradata/nodes/so-much-for-subtlety.local.yaml, skipping Debug: hiera(): Cannot find datafile /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hieradata/common.yaml, skipping noformat This shows the hiera.yaml file isn't being read and used for the hiera lookup component of puppet lookup, although the option was recognised: noformat $ puppet lookup --debug --hiera_config hiera.yaml message | grep hiera_config Debug: Using settings: adding file resource 'hiera_config': 'File[/Users/jesse/tmp/hiera_test/hiera.yaml]{:path=>"/Users/jesse/tmp/hiera_test/hiera.yaml", :ensure=>:file, :loglevel=>:debug, :links=>:follow, :backup=>false}' noformat And: noformat $ puppet lookup --hiera_config hiera.yaml --configprint hiera_config /Users/jesse/tmp/hiera_test/hiera.yaml noformat 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.
