Add `gomplate` templating engine to Atmos stack manifests. Update docs @aknysh (#578)

Breaking changes

If you used Go templates in Atmos stack manifest before, they were enabled by default.
Starting with this release, you have to explicitly enable Go templating in atmos.yaml and enable either Sprig or Gomplate (or both).
See the description below.

what

why

  • Allow using the rich collection of the Gomplate Functions in Atmos stack manifest

  • NOTE: The Gomplate Datasources, including configuring the datasources in Atmos stack manifests and using Inheritance for datasources, will be added in the follow up PR

Description

Configuration

Templating in Atmos stack manifests is configured in the atmos.yaml CLI config file in the templates section:

# https://pkg.go.dev/text/template
templates:
  settings:
    enabled: true
    # https://masterminds.github.io/sprig
    sprig:
      enabled: true
    # https://docs.gomplate.ca
    gomplate:
      enabled: true

  • templates.settings.enabled - a boolean flag to enable/disable the processing of Go templates in Atmos stack manifests. If set
    to false, Atmos will not process Go templates in stack manifests

  • templates.settings.sprig.enabled - a boolean flag to enable/disable the Sprig Functions
    in Atmos stack manifests

  • templates.settings.gomplate.enabled - a boolean flag to enable/disable the Gomplate Functions
    in Atmos stack manifests

Atmos sections supporting Go templates

You can use Go templates in the following Atmos sections to refer to values in the same or other sections:

  • vars
  • settings
  • env
  • metadata
  • providers
  • overrides
  • backend
  • backend_type

For example, let's say we have the following component configuration using Go templates:

component:
  terraform:
    vpc:
      settings:
        setting1: 1
        setting2: 2
        setting3: "{{ .vars.var3 }}"
        setting4: "{{ .settings.setting1 }}"
        component: vpc
        backend_type: s3
        region: "us-east-2"
        assume_role: "<role-arn>"
      backend_type: "{{ .settings.backend_type }}"
      metadata:
        component: "{{ .settings.component }}"
      providers:
        aws:
          region: "{{ .settings.region }}"
          assume_role: "{{ .settings.assume_role }}"
      env:
        ENV1: e1
        ENV2: "{{ .settings.setting1 }}-{{ .settings.setting2 }}"
      vars:
        var1: "{{ .settings.setting1 }}"
        var2: "{{ .settings.setting2 }}"
        var3: 3
        # Add the tags to all the resources provisioned by this Atmos component
        tags:
          atmos_component: "{{ .atmos_component }}"
          atmos_stack: "{{ .atmos_stack }}"
          atmos_manifest: "{{ .atmos_stack_file }}"
          region: "{{ .vars.region }}"
          terraform_workspace: "{{ .workspace }}"
          assumed_role: "{{ .providers.aws.assume_role }}"
          description: "{{ .atmos_component }} component provisioned in {{ .atmos_stack }} stack by assuming IAM role {{ .providers.aws.assume_role }}"
          # Examples of using the Gomplate and Sprig functions
          # https://docs.gomplate.ca/functions/strings
          atmos_component_description: "{{ strings.Title .atmos_component }} component {{ .vars.name | strings.Quote }} provisioned in the stack {{ .atmos_stack | strings.Quote }}"
          # https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/os.html
          provisioned_by_user: '{{ env "USER" }}'

When executing Atmos commands like atmos describe component and atmos terraform plan/apply, Atmos processes all the template tokens in the manifest and generates the final configuration for the component in the stack:

settings:
  setting1: 1
  setting2: 2
  setting3: 3
  setting4: 1
  component: vpc
  backend_type: s3
  region: us-east-2
  assume_role: <role-arn>
backend_type: s3
metadata:
  component: vpc
providers:
  aws:
    region: us-east-2
    assume_role: <role-arn>
env:
  ENV1: e1
  ENV2: 1-2
vars:
  var1: 1
  var2: 2
  var3: 3
  tags:
    assumed_role: <role-arn>
    atmos_component: vpc
    atmos_component_description: Vpc component "common" provisioned in the stack "plat-ue2-dev"
    atmos_manifest: orgs/acme/plat/dev/us-east-2
    atmos_stack: plat-ue2-dev
    description: vpc component provisioned in plat-ue2-dev stack by assuming IAM role <role-arn>
    provisioned_by_user: <user>
    region: us-east-2
    terraform_workspace: plat-ue2-dev

Use-cases

While Go templates in Atmos stack manifests offer great flexibility for various use-cases, one of the obvious use-cases is to add a standard set of tags to all the resources in the infrastructure.

For example, by adding this configuration to the stacks/orgs/acme/_defaults.yaml Org-level stack manifest:

terraform:
  vars:
    tags:
      atmos_component: "{{ .atmos_component }}"
      atmos_stack: "{{ .atmos_stack }}"
      atmos_manifest: "{{ .atmos_stack_file }}"
      terraform_workspace: "{{ .workspace }}"
      # Examples of using the Gomplate and Sprig functions
      # https://docs.gomplate.ca/functions/strings
      atmos_component_description: "{{ strings.Title .atmos_component }} component {{ .vars.name | strings.Quote }} provisioned in the stack {{ .atmos_stack | strings.Quote }}"
      # https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/os.html
      provisioned_by_user: '{{ env "USER" }}'

The tags will be processed and automatically added to all the resources provisioned in the infrastructure.

Excluding templates from processing by Atmos

If you need to provide Go templates to external systems (e.g. ArgoCD or Datadog) verbatim and prevent Atmos from processing the templates, use double curly braces + backtick + double curly braces instead of just double curly braces:

{{`{{  instead of  {{

}}`}}  instead of  }}

For example:

components:
  terraform:

    eks/argocd:
      metadata:
        component: "eks/argocd"
      vars:
        enabled: true
        name: "argocd"
        chart_repository: "https://argoproj.github.io/argo-helm"
        chart_version: 5.46.0

        chart_values:
          template-github-commit-status:
            message: |
              Application {{`{{ .app.metadata.name }}`}} is now running new version.
            webhook:
              github-commit-status:
                method: POST
                path: "/repos/{{`{{ call .repo.FullNameByRepoURL .app.metadata.annotations.app_repository }}`}}/statuses/{{`{{ .app.metadata.annotations.app_commit }}`}}"
                body: |
                  {
                    {{`{{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Running" }}`}} "state": "pending"{{`{{end}}`}}
                    {{`{{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Succeeded" }}`}} "state": "success"{{`{{end}}`}}
                    {{`{{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Error" }}`}} "state": "error"{{`{{end}}`}}
                    {{`{{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Failed" }}`}} "state": "error"{{`{{end}}`}},
                    "description": "ArgoCD",
                    "target_url": "{{`{{ .context.argocdUrl }}`}}/applications/{{`{{ .app.metadata.name }}`}}",
                    "context": "continuous-delivery/{{`{{ .app.metadata.name }}`}}"
                  }

When Atmos processes the templates in the manifest shown above, it renders them as raw strings allowing sending the templates to the external system for processing:

chart_values:
  template-github-commit-status:
    message: |
      Application {{ .app.metadata.name }} is now running new version.
    webhook:
      github-commit-status:
        method: POST
        path: "/repos/{{ call .repo.FullNameByRepoURL .app.metadata.annotations.app_repository }}/statuses/{{ .app.metadata.annotations.app_commit }}"
        body: |
          {
            {{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Running" }} "state": "pending"{{end}}
            {{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Succeeded" }} "state": "success"{{end}}
            {{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Error" }} "state": "error"{{end}}
            {{ if eq .app.status.operationState.phase "Failed" }} "state": "error"{{end}},
            "description": "ArgoCD",
            "target_url": "{{ .context.argocdUrl }}/applications/{{ .app.metadata.name }}",
            "context": "continuous-delivery/{{ .app.metadata.name }}"
          }

The printf template function is also supported and can be used instead of double curly braces + backtick + double curly braces.

The following examples produce the same result:

chart_values:
  template-github-commit-status:
    message: >-
      Application {{`{{ .app.metadata.name }}`}} is now running new version.
chart_values:
  template-github-commit-status:
    message: "Application {{`{{ .app.metadata.name }}`}} is now running new version."
chart_values:
  template-github-commit-status:
    message: >-
      {{ printf "Application {{ .app.metadata.name }} is now running new version." }}
chart_values:
  template-github-commit-status:
    message: '{{ printf "Application {{ .app.metadata.name }} is now running new version." }}'
