I plan on opening a feature request on this, but I wanted to start a
discussion and get an idea of possibilities and implications before I did.
I think it would be nice to be able to use the databinding feature of hiera
/ puppet 3 with defines. Now, since defined types are not singletons, it
does pose a bit of a problem in terms of addressing.
How problematic would it be to support something like:
define module::mydefine(
$param1 = 'value'
){
....
}
In the node def:
module::mydefine{ 'foo': }
Somewhere in the hiera hierarchy something like:
module::mydefine::foo::param1: 'othervalue'
I know under current setups, the above key would be corresponding to a
class located at $modulepath/module/manifests/mydefine/foo.pp
but would something like I described even be feasible? Or is there another
construct that would allow similar usage?
Thanks.
