-# host2.client.com:

+#!/usr/bin/env ruby
+#
+# load_vars.rb
+#
+# This script will allow for loading variables from an external YAML
+# file and expose then for further use inside the Puppet manifest file ...
+#
+# For example:
+#
+# Given following content of the data.yaml file:
+#
+# ---
+# host1.example.com:
+# foo: bar
+# baz: quux
+# question: 42
+# host2.example.com:
+# abc: def
+# this: that
+# darth: vader
+#
+# Then calling load_vars in Puppet manifest file as follows:
+#
+# load_vars("/etc/puppet/data.yaml", $fqdn)
+#
+# Will result in addition of variables $foo, $baz and $question
+# for matching host name as per the variable $fqdn ...
+#
+# Another example which uses per-host file:
+#
+# Given following content of the file data-host1.example.com.yaml:
+#
+# ---
+# foo: bar
+#
+# Then when we call load_vars like this:
+#
+# load_vars("/etc/puppet/data-$fqdn.yaml")
+#
+# This will result in a variable $foo being added and ready for use.
