Some customers indicated they are seriously considering moving to Ansible because it has vault(the eyaml like solution for ansible) built in and supported. To have parity we need something like that and eyaml would seem to be the simplest way to get there.

Description

Now that Hiera 5 is out, there's support for eyaml lookups per hierarchy level. But although the eyaml backend is included, users still need to install the hiera-eyaml gem separately in order to make use of it. It'd be beneficial to include it as part of the packages, so things work out of the box.
