Issue #16856 has been updated by Ryan Coleman.
The next iteration of this idea is available for experimentation. You can find it in this PR: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1821 and read more about it in this ARM: https://github.com/puppetlabs/armatures/blob/master/arm-8.puppet_bindings/index.md I'm just playing the messenger, having just tried out Henrik's branch. In order to use this, you'll need to configure puppet.conf to set parser = future and binder = true. I believe that you'll also need to install the rgen gem. ---------------------------------------- Feature #16856: puppet should support data in modules https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16856#change-96102 * Author: R.I. Pienaar * Status: Needs More Information * Priority: Normal * Assignee: eric sorenson * 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.
