Issue #17691 has been updated by eric sorenson.

Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted
Assignee set to Patrick Carlisle

I think the underlying problem is that there's not a way to get the equivalent 
of hiera_array out of data bindings.

Patrick's going to survey the hiera bugs this iteration, so I'm assigning this 
one to him.

Bug #17691: hiera lookups a overwritten
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17691#change-82543

Author: Oliver Schad
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Patrick Carlisle
Category: 
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 3.0.1
Keywords: hiera hiera_array params.pp
Branch: 


We do the handling of parameters of classes in a seperate params.pp and 
inherits in a class:

<pre>
------------
params.pp
------------

class myclass::params {
  myvar = hiera_array('myclass::mycar')
}

-----------
init.pp
-----------

class myclass ( $myvar = $myclass::params::myvar ) {
}
</pre>
In this situation happens the following:

1) hiera_array is called, the variable "myclass::params::myvar" is set
2) hiera is called, the variable myclass::myvar is set

You can change the behaviour by setting in puppet.conf:

    data_binding_terminus = none

In my opinion this shouldn't happen, because a default value is set or it 
should be markable, if you want a hiera or a hiera_$something.
