Re: Puppet lookup (doing a Hiera lookup) in yaml files do not find keys with a dot
Mihail Mihaylov, I assume that you have a yaml or (corresponding json) file somewhere with that looks like this:
ssh::keys::firstname.lastname: some value
and not like this
ssh::keys::firstname:
lastname: some value
and you wonder why value isn't found? Expressed as a hash, the two forms would look like this:
{ 'ssh::keys::firstname.lastname' => 'some value' }# first example
{ 'ssh::keys::firstname' => { 'lastname' => 'some value' } # second example
and unless you quote the key (as in really include quotes in a quoted string, not just quote the string itself), then the lookup will roughly do the equivalence of:

Title: Message Title Mihail Mihaylov commented on HI-507 Re: Puppet lookup (doing a Hiera lookup) in yaml files do not find keys with a dot Hello Thomas Hallgren, I apology for bringing you back on old topic, but could you please clarify a bit more the solution for this "dot issue" with keynames in Hiera. I hit same problem while migrating from Puppet3 to Puppet4. I found that your explanation in this discussion matches behavior I observe for my case. I also read the related tickets and discussions, but I haven't got clear understanding how to make it run properly, yet. My particular case is: I use puppet to distribute users' ssh keys, where user names are in format "firstname.lastname". It works fine with Puppet3, but with Puppet4 (Agent v. 4.10.8; Hiera v. 3.3.2 ), Hiera looks only for the "firstname". Dot acts as separator. A short example: puppet master --compile mymaster.mydomain.net -v --debug Debug: Lookup of 'ssh::keys::firstname.lastname' Searching for "ssh::keys::firstname.lastname" Global Data Provider (hiera configuration version 5) Using configuration "/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/hiera.yaml" Hierarchy entry "Json hierarchy levels" Merge strategy hash

Title: Message Title Andreas Papst commented on HI-507 Re: Puppet lookup (doing a Hiera lookup) in yaml files do not find keys with a dot Hello, Are you telling me, that this works as being designed? At least it is very confusing when somebody like me did an upgrad from puppet3 to puppet4. With puppet3 this YAML-key with a dot inside was valid and could be used with any tool reporting the respective value. After upgrading to puppet4 it took me half a day to find out this dot is not valid any more even using hiera command itself. And I'm aware of friends running into the same problem. May I suggest, that you update your upgrade-documentation including this issue.

Title: Message Title Thomas Hallgren commented on HI-507 Re: Puppet lookup (doing a Hiera lookup) in yaml files do not find keys with a dot The problem is that lookup passes a dotted key verbatim to Hiera (lookup has no special processing for dotted keys). Hiera splits the key (it's not quoted). Hence, in the example above it looks for the keys 'foo::@*#bar' (no quotes in there) and 'foo'. It doesn't find 'foo' and hence, raises an error. Lookup has no idea that this particular provider splits keys so it reports that 'foo.bar' cannot be found. The behavior would be different if an Hiera Data Provider was used (for environment or module data). It will not split the key unless it's found in an interpolation _expression_. A behavior which in itself can be seen as somewhat inconsistent.

Title: Message Title Henrik Lindberg commented on HI-507 Re: Puppet lookup (doing a Hiera lookup) in yaml files do not find keys with a dot This is still a duplicate of HI-504 so I will close this again. Please do not reopen this. You can see how this was verified on HI-504 , also note the easy to make mistakes by others when trying to verify (being bitten by shell quoting etc.). If you have a reproducible sample that shows the problem please post that on Hi-504.
