--- :backends: - ldap - yaml - json :ldap: :url:ldaps://ldap.stoney-cloud.org:636/ :binddn:cn=Manager,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org :bindpw:secret :basedn:dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org :yaml: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata :json: :datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata :hierarchy: - "ou=virtual machines,ou=services?sub?(&(sstNetworkHostName=%{::hostname})(sstNetworkDomainName=%{::domainname}))" - "ou=software stack,ou=configuration?sub?(uid=%{::rzUid})" - "%{::clientcert}" - "%{::custom_location}" - common
Notes:
- This is an example of how a hiera config file might look with an mock ldap backend. The backend in question still needs to be found or written.
- mapping from a DN to directory structure would be nice, so we would rather have to write: ou=virtual machines/ou=services instead to be compatible with the already existing yaml/json backends or something different entirely
- this needs to take into consideration that puppet expects keys to be defined in a way to enable implicit parameter injection in parameterized classes
- existing ldap backends for hiera: [1], [2]
- we should probably aim at integrating this in hiera-2 with regards to ARM-8 and the already imlemented ARM-9
- I'm not convienced that we should not just grab all this data from the stoney_core:_REST_API and use that as an integration point fpr puppet.
