Attempt to parse a string as json when called by hiera() to improve hiera-etcd compatibility with yaml backend. Fall back to native string if the string does not contain json. Use case: It should be possible to use both etcd and yaml backends with a given puppet repo and the hiera() function to return a complex data structure. * hiera() returns first match and can be an array, hash, or string * hiera_array() does a concat and may not be desired * hiera_hash() does a deep merge and may not be desired

Thanks, makes sense to me |

jumanjihouse#10 switched the url to my fork of hiera-etcd. garethr/hiera-etcd#6 has been merged, so it's better imho to use the upstream url to ensure we always have the latest version of hiera-etcd.
