Template Functions

Template functions are marked by the double curly bracket + “repl” escape sequence. They allow for user input to be dynamically inserted into application configuration values. The sequence should be {{repl, not {{ repl.

Go Templates

Replicated uses Go’s template package to execute the following functions. In addition to the functions listed here, all functions from the Go text/template package are available. Please note that Go template functions must still be escaped with “repl” escape sequence as demonstrated below. This is to ensure other template engines, such as Handlebars or Mustache, or Go templating used in application configuration files will work as expected.

{{repl if pipeline}} T1 {{repl else}} T0 {{repl end}}

Conditionals

Parts of the release YAML can be applied conditionally using Go’s templating. This can be used with Docker Swarm to conditionally insert environment variables in situations where empty environment variables can’t be used. For example:

services:
  app-app:
    image: myapp
    ports:
      - 5000:80
    networks:
      - myapp
    depends_on:
      - redis
    environment:
{{repl if eq (ConsoleSetting "airgap.install") true}}
      - AIRGAP="true"
{{repl end}}
    deploy:
      mode: replicated
      replicas: 2
      labels: [APP=VOTING]
      placement:
        constraints: [node.role == worker]

In this instance, the AIRGAP environment variable will be inserted into the compose YAML if this release is run on an airgapped installation.
