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.

Template functions that refer to your containers are always addressed in pairs with “component name” and “image name”. You should use the full image name as it appears in your container definition.

Go Templates

Replicated uses Go’s template engine to execute the following functions. In addition to the functions listed here, all of the Go template runtime is available. Note that Go template functions must still be escaped with “repl” escape sequence as demonstrated below.

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