Hiera::Config

Simple Vagrant plugin allowing the hiera gem to be accessed within a Vagrantfile.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'hiera-config'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install hiera-config

See https://github.com/puppetlabs/hiera for general instructions on how to call hiera from within Ruby code (e.g. a Vagrantfile!).

Using the configuration examples of https://github.com/puppetlabs/hiera, we can define a simple Vagrantfile as follows:

raise "Perform 'vagrant plugin install hiera-config'" unless ::Vagrant.has_plugin?("hiera-config")

require "hiera"

scope = { "location" => "dc1" }
hiera = Hiera.new(:config => "/etc/hiera.yaml")

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  config.vm.hostname = hiera.lookup("ntpserver", "HOSTNAME", scope)
  
  # other vagrant stuff here...
end
