It works! Taking mozilla/sops and #puppet #hiera and making them one! I do love hiera_eyaml but #sops is just 10x better.

```
$ puppet lookup --hiera_config=spec/fixtures/hiera.yaml --modulepath=~/git/hiera-sops nested::data
---
thing1:
- one
- two
thing2:

- four

I've been doing more #kubernetes stuff in #Helm for work, and now I wonder what went wrong for the industry to be satisfied with this paper thin layer on top of the heaping pile of excrement that is the Go templating language?

Seriously, you're almost exclusively generating #YAML in templates, and somehow you have to manage indentation by hand when including snippets around?! Even #hiera has been doing this in a sensible way for more than a decade (with the alias lookup). I feel like I'm missing something obvious.

I wonder if someone already made #emacs deal with #hiera #eyaml files.
That is, #yaml files, where keys (one to many) can be (individually) encrypted. (In my case with gpg).
Hmm. Wonder if any #emacs guru has written something that makes use of #hiera-eyaml easier. That is, without the need to get to the file in shell and call eyaml edit on it (which then opens an editor....).

Some #tech topics tags I love to talk about: #linux , especially #debian. Config management with #puppet, #hiera, #ansible. Backed by #git and #gerrit. Virtualization with #ganeti, #kvm / #qemu.I like #systemd a lot. Scripting/programming with #bash and #python. Software storage with #ceph. Also network topics like #ipv6 and dynamic #routing on servers (although I don't know a lot about the latter yet).
J'arrive à #Rennes pour donner le 2e module de ma formation #Puppet à la @UnivRennes1DSI. Au prog : #hiera , param de modules et design de l'infra serveur. #miam !
