Overview

FillTemplate is a little go tool which allowes you to simply fill Templates with one or more json/yml files

Usage:

FillTemplate [global flags] fromfile [flags] [values file path]

Flags:

-f, --format string input file format (supports json or yaml) (default "yaml") -h, --help help for fromfile

Global Flags:

short command	long command	description
	--exec string	command to execute when output file changed (requires output filename to be set)
-o,	--output string	file to save the result to (default "stdout")
-t,	--template string	Template file to fill

Example

FillTemplate -t [template file] -o [output file] fromfile -f json [input values file 0] ...

When providing just one input file the content is available in the template via the root object .. When providing multiple input files the root object will be an array of the different file contents and the separate contents can be extracted by the index function of the templating engine. e.g (get the first files content )

{{- $firstFile := index . 0 }}
