Hi,

I'm trying to get to grips with hiera and yaml as the backend.

given a yaml file like this:

---
user:
  dave:
    home: "/home/dave"
    shell: "/bin/bash"
  steve:    
    home: "/home/steve"
    shell: "/bin/zsh"

How would I do a hiera lookup for steve's shell?
on the cli, I cannot do "hiera steve.shell" as I might expect.

Obviously I could flatten my yaml and have something like this:
---
dave_home: "/home/dave"
dave_shell: "/bin/bash"
steve_home: "/home/steve"
steve_shell: "/bin/zsh"

But that kind of defeats the point of structured data sets in yaml

Thanks for any help

Tom
