Something like the following might work.
class profile::app1_site
class {'apache::mod::php':}
package { 'php5-brcypt': }
# etc etc
}
I've avoided parameterized classes for historical reasons, but Joseph's
method should work. It does require some restructuring.
fwiw not a fan of the apache::mod set of functionality unless the
module is part of Apache core. I've noticed there is now a
puppetlabs-passenger module to handle the complexities apache::mod {
'passenger': } could not. Assuming your PHP config is more than just
installing the Apache module I recommend following the same logic and
making your own PHP module with a module and local conf define. Wrap
that in profile::php with the needed create_resources and add it to the
role.

Joseph,
I'm not currently defining classes with hiera. The host is assigned a
role, which includes a profile, which installs includes ::apache. I
guess this may be something that we need to look at for these types of
scenarios.

Hi,
How are you declaring your classes to include from with in hiera?
Is it similar to this?
---
classes:
- apache
- apache::mod
apache::someparamater: value
apache::mod::php: blah
If so, you should be able to do:
---
classes:
- apache
- apache::mod::php
apache::my_favorite_parameter: value
apache::mod::php::php_parameter: some_other_vaule
I haven't tried that exact thing with the apache module, but it does
work for other modules with sub-classes that I've been working with.
That is assuming that you're using the 'classes' array with the
hiera_include function. We use the create_resources function to create
wrappers for defines, while regular classes are included via the
hiera_include and classes array.
Our setup was pretty much taken directly from the hiera documentation:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/1/puppet.html#assigning-classes-to-nodes-with-hiera-hierainclude
<http://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/1/puppet.html#assigning-classes-to-nodes-with-hiera-hierainclude>
There are some gotchas that come up with the hiera merge behavior
depending on how complex you're hiera layout becomes. For example, we
had to set the hiera merge_behavior to deeper for us to get some of the
desired results that we were looking for.
