Feature #19188: configurable behavior with non-existing hiera variables
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19188
Author: micah -
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal

Category:
Target version:
Affected Puppet version:
Keywords: hiera
Branch:
puppet-hiera will fail if it wants to read a variable and can't find it.
It would be nice if you could configure the behaviour in hiera.yaml for how
hiera would deal with non-existent variables.
For example:
<pre>
--- dev/puppet » cat manifests/hiera_test2.pp
$a=hiera('a')
$b=hiera('b')
notice($a)
notice($b)
--- dev/puppet » cat /home/varac/.puppet/hiera.yaml
---
:backends:
- yaml
- puppet
:logger: console
:yaml:
:datadir: /home/varac/.puppet
:hierarchy:
- hiera_test
:puppet:
:datasource: data
--- dev/puppet » cat /home/varac/.puppet/hiera_test.yaml
---
a: a
b: b
--- dev/puppet » puppet apply -v manifests/hiera_test2.pp
notice: Scope(Class[main]): a
notice: Scope(Class[main]): b
info: Applying configuration version '1360597894'
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.07 seconds
--- dev/puppet » vi /home/varac/.puppet/hiera_test.yaml # remove variable b
--- dev/puppet » puppet apply -v manifests/hiera_test2.pp
Could not find data item b in any Hiera data file and no default supplied at
/home/varac/dev/Projects/Puppet/dev/puppet/manifests/hiera_test2.pp:2 on node
rocinante.bitrigger.de
</pre>
