puppet variables not coming through in template?

Here is a simple test case that shows what I am trying to do. I have a hash passed in through hiera and I want to apply a different template to generate a different file for each key. However the key/value pairs I split out in the puppet code do not seem to be available in the template. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? $ cat init.pp class test { $test = { a=>1,b=>2,c=>3 } $test.each |$x, $y| { file { "/tmp/test-$x.out": ensure => file, content => template("test/test-$x.erb") } } } $ $ cat test-a.erb Testing key value pairs used in template key is <%= @x %> value is <%= @y %> $ When I run this I create the 3 files in /tmp/test-[abc].out. $ cat test-a.out Testing key value pairs used in template key is value is .... $ grep ^x test-* $ grep ^y test-* The values of x and y are not populated and do not show up in the dump of variables available to the template.
