Issue #16856 has been updated by Ryan Coleman.
FWIW, I was playing with this last weekend and will again next weekend. I've got a two-part blog post on experimenting with it and once I'm satisfied with my playing around, I'll offer some feedback in this ticket. ---------------------------------------- Feature #16856: puppet should support data in modules https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16856#change-75690 Author: R.I. Pienaar Status: Investigating Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1217 At present there is a way to store data in modules using the puppet backend for hiera but it is optional and kind of broken. The site hierarchy impacts how the puppet backend behaves which makes it impossible for module authors to supply data in their modules they can rely on I propose a new hiera backend that loads a hierarchy of data from the 'data' directory in the module, this module must always be present in a puppet install. This ability is key to the ability to create configurable forge modules that do not have hard coded values thanks to the puppet 3 hiera integration reference the users list thread https://groups.google.com/d/topic/puppet-users/pvqzeyHkrY4/discussion -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
