hiera-browser is a tool that simply makes an admin aware of what values a node can expect to retrieve from hiera.
As of right now, hiera-browser only supports infrastructures with a single yaml backend.
What this tool does is it takes all your configuration data, including anything it can decrypt using hiera-eyaml, and exposes it. Please be careful about how you run this software in production.
For open source puppet:
gem install hiera-browser
HIERA_YAML=$(puppet master --configprint hiera_config) hiera-browser
For PE:
/opt/puppet/bin/gem install hiera-browser
HIERA_YAML=$(/opt/puppet/bin/puppet master --configprint hiera_config) /opt/puppet/bin/hiera-browser
as of right now, this runs hiera-browser as a totally exposed web server, so be careful
NOTE: as above, this will install the FOSS puppet gem, so be careful
bundle install
bundle exec rake cucumber
bundle exec rake rspec
or, alternatively, if you're actively developing against hiera-browser, it might be worthwhile to run guard:
bundle exec guard
This will launch a guard process that should run tests whenever you save classes or spec tests.
There is real live (fake) test data so you can get a demo up and running fairly quickly:
bundle install
bundle exec rake demo
