In an scenario with 2 classes: pk1::claseA and pk::1claseB with claseA like: pk1::claseA { $somevariable = hiera('myvariable') notify{$variable:} } and claseB like: pk1::claseB inherits pk1::claseA {} with the tree dir for the module pk1: pk1 pk1/manifests pk1/manifests/claseA.pp pk1/manifests/claseB.pp and a node like: node 'pilot' { include claseB } and a hiera.yaml like: :backends: - yaml :hierarchy: - "domains/%{calling_class_path}" - common :yaml: # datadir is empty here, so hiera uses its defaults: # - /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/%{environment}/hieradata on *nix # - %CommonAppData%\PuppetLabs\code\environments\%{environment}\hieradata on Windows # When specifying a datadir, make sure the directory exists. :datadir: and a file /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hieradata/domains/pk1/claseA.yaml with the content: myvariable = 'A' and a file /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/hieradata/domains/pk1/claseB.yaml with the content: myvariable = 'B' $somevariable should be resolved to 'A' or to 'B' ? In the tests I've ran the answer is A but I don't really know if I'm doing something wrong or it is the expected behaviour. Thanks in advance!
