How to configure with Hiera

[thomasbergmann]

I´m stuck getting it to work with Hiera. Is it possible to convert to yaml?

[mosen]

I'm not sure if this is possible because its a resource type and not a class.
I think it could be possible to wrap the type with a class, similar to what the mysql module does perhaps with mysql::db and its Database type.

I will find the answer and report back.

Have a look at the create_resources function:

Thanks @jonathanbower, I knew there'd be another way to create the resource out of hiera. Closing as resolved.

Thanks, will check this.
