Hi - as the author of both of these let me clarify....

What version of Puppet are you using?  If you have Hiera 5 then you should
install the hiera-http puppet module and the lookup_http gem, *not* the
hiera-http gem.....    Hiera-HTTP versions < 3.0.0 were built to work as
Hiera 3.x style backends and was shipped as a Rubygem..  Hiera 5.0
completely changed how 'backends' worked and Hiera-HTTP released 3.0 as a
data provider function which is a Puppet function rather than a Ruby
library and should be installed as a Puppet module.
