Issue 122 - Puppet ENC via Hiera

hiera/puppet-node-classifier.rb

+#!/usr/bin/env ruby
+# This script is a node classifier for Puppet that operates on top of Hiera
+# and uses a custom hosts.yaml config to map host roles.
+
+require 'getoptlong'
+require 'hiera'
+require 'socket'
+require 'yaml'
+
+# Where to search for the Hiera configuration
+HIERA_CONFIG = ENV.fetch('PUPPET_HIERA_CONFIG', '/etc/puppet/hiera.yaml')
+# Where to search for the Hosts configuration
+HOSTS_CONFIG = ENV.fetch('PUPPET_HOSTS_CONFIG', '/etc/puppet/infrastructure/hiera/private/hosts.yaml')

+
+# Although there's no need for any options in particular yet, the script
+# still recognizes a --help option, which is considered the bare minimum by
+# convention. Nonetheless, future options may become integrated here (see
+# also http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/getoptlong/rdoc/GetoptLong.html):
+GetoptLong.new(

+Usage:  #{BASENAME} [hostname]

+
+Options:
+
+    --help, -h
+        Display this help message and exit gracefully.

Nit: Space before => please. Same for scope object above.

Done.
