Oh ok, makes sense. I did that and now I get "can't convert String into 
Hash at /etc/puppet/modules/profiles/manifests/logstash/shipper.pp:15"

My shipper.pp

class profiles::logstash::shipper() {

  $shipper_config = hiera('profiles::logstash::config', {})
  create_resources('profiles::logstash::config', $shipper_config)

  notice("${shipper_config[name]}")
  class { 'logstash':
    ensure  => 'present',
    version => '1.4.1-1_bd507eb',
    status  => 'enabled',
  }

  profiles::logstash::config { 'shipper':
       content => $content,
       order   => $order,
  }

  include logstash
}

Line 15 is the create_resources line.
