Describe the bug

On the inventory tab, puppetboard display a table of facts. The default config feature legacy fact not reported anymore with Puppet 8 making the table almost empty. Using the dot-notation for equivalent facts (networking.ip) seems not to be supported.

Puppetboard version

4.2.6 but the code in the master branch looks identical.

Environment and installation method

n/a

You can add the following to your puppet.conf under [Main] to gain the ability back, for now

include_legacy_facts = true

Instead of enabling the legacy feature that is being removed, better allow to use the dotted-notation of facts. That's why I opened this issue initially.

It is very low priority for me, but anyone is free to jump in and work on this ;-)
