Title: Message Title

Thomas Hallgren created an issue   Puppet / PUP-7612 It is impossible to navigate an integer keyed Hiera hash using dotted keys Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2017/06/01 12:45 AM Fix Versions: PUP 4.10.2 Priority: Normal Reporter: Thomas Hallgren With the fix of PUP-7594, it is now possible to use hashes with integer keys in Hiera. Those keys can however not be navigated using a dotted key with integer numbers in it. I.e. ports: 80: test: test cannot be navigated using the key 'ports.80'. This is because integers in dotted keys are presumed to be positional indexes in arrays, not keys in hashes. It should be possible to navigate a hash containing integer keys. A hash containing strings that represent integers should also be possible to navigate, but then, the integer in the dotted key must be quoted. E.g. ports: "80": test: test should not be found by key ports.80. Instead, ports.'80' must be used.
