require 'hiera_puppet' module Puppet::Parser::Functions newfunction( :hiera_include, :arity => -2, :doc => <<-DOC Assigns classes to a node using an [array merge lookup](https://puppet.com/docs/hiera/latest/lookup_types.html#array-merge) that retrieves the value for a user-specified key from Hiera's data. The `hiera_include` function requires: - A string key name to use for classes. - A call to this function (i.e. `hiera_include('classes')`) in your environment's `sites.pp` manifest, outside of any node definitions and below any top-scope variables that Hiera uses in lookups. - `classes` keys in the appropriate Hiera data sources, with an array for each `classes` key and each value of the array containing the name of a class. The function takes up to three arguments, in this order: 1. A string key that Hiera searches for in the hierarchy. **Required**. 2. An optional default value to return if Hiera doesn't find anything matching the key. * If this argument isn't provided and this function results in a lookup failure, Puppet fails with a compilation error. 3. The optional name of an arbitrary [hierarchy level](https://puppet.com/docs/hiera/latest/hierarchy.html) to insert at the top of the hierarchy. This lets you temporarily modify the hierarchy for a single lookup. * If Hiera doesn't find a matching key in the overriding hierarchy level, it continues searching the rest of the hierarchy. The function uses an [array merge lookup](https://puppet.com/docs/hiera/latest/lookup_types.html#array-merge) to retrieve the `classes` array, so every node gets every class from the hierarchy. **Example**: Using `hiera_include` ~~~ yaml # Assuming hiera.yaml # :hierarchy: # - web01.example.com # - common # Assuming web01.example.com.yaml: # classes: # - apache::mod::php # Assuming common.yaml: # classes: # - apache ~~~ ~~~ puppet # In site.pp, outside of any node definitions and below any top-scope variables: hiera_include('classes', undef) # Puppet assigns the apache and apache::mod::php classes to the web01.example.com node. ~~~ You can optionally generate the default value with a [lambda](https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/lang_lambdas.html) that takes one parameter. **Example**: Using `hiera_include` with a lambda ~~~ puppet # Assuming the same Hiera data as the previous example: # In site.pp, outside of any node definitions and below any top-scope variables: hiera_include('classes') | $key | {"Key \'${key}\' not found" } # Puppet assigns the apache and apache::mod::php classes to the web01.example.com node. # If hiera_include couldn't match its key, it would return the lambda result, # "Key 'classes' not found". ~~~ `hiera_include` is deprecated in favor of using a combination of `include` and `lookup` and will be removed in Puppet 6.0.0. Replace the calls as follows: | from | to | | ---- | ---| | hiera_include($key) | include(lookup($key, { 'merge' => 'unique' })) | | hiera_include($key, $default) | include(lookup($key, { 'default_value' => $default, 'merge' => 'unique' })) | | hiera_include($key, $default, $level) | override level not supported | See [the Upgrading to Hiera 5 migration guide](https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/hiera_migrate.html) for more information. Note that calls using the 'override level' option are not directly supported by 'lookup' and the produced result must be post processed to get exactly the same result, for example using simple hash/array `+` or with calls to stdlib's `deep_merge` function depending on kind of hiera call and setting of merge in hiera.yaml. - Since 4.0.0 DOC ) do |*args| Error.is4x('hiera_include') end end
