Stare at your own problem long enough and it'll come to you.
Move the case to the manifest:
class yum {
:
case $site {
'a': { $proxy = 'proxya' }
'b': { $proxy = 'proxyb' }
'c': { $proxy = 'proxyc' }
:
default: { $proxy = '' }
}
Then change the "$proxy" to "@proxy" in the templates and lose the first
line (scope.function_template()). Worked like a charm.
Then I realized the data actually belonged in Hiera, not in code, so the
case statement then just decomposed into:
$proxy = hiera('proxy')
