var InitTime time.Time

InitTime is the UTC time when this package was initialized. It is used as the timestamp for all configuration templates so that they match for a single build.

})

LegacyIsotimeFunc constructs a function that returns a string representation of the current date and time using golang's datetime formatting.

Functions

func Env

func Env(key cty.Value) (cty.Value, error)

Env returns a string representation of the env var behind key.

func LegacyIsotime

func LegacyIsotime(format cty.Value) (cty.Value, error)

LegacyIsotimeFunc returns a string representation of the current date and time using the given format string. The format string follows golang's datetime formatting. See https://www.packer.io/docs/templates/legacy_json_templates/engine#isotime-function-format-reference for more details.

This function has been provided to create backwards compatability with Packer's legacy JSON templates. However, we recommend that you upgrade your HCL Packer template to use Timestamp and FormatDate together as soon as is convenient.

Please note that if you are using a large number of builders, provisioners or post-processors, the isotime may be slightly different for each one because it is from when the plugin is launched not the initial Packer process. In order to avoid this and make the timestamp consistent across all plugins, set it as a user variable and then access the user variable within your plugins.

func Length

func Length(collection cty.Value) (cty.Value, error)

Length returns the number of elements in the given collection or number of Unicode characters in the given string.

func MakeTemplateFileFunc

func MakeTemplateFileFunc(baseDir string, funcsCb func() map[string]function.Function) function.Function

MakeTemplateFileFunc constructs a function that takes a file path and an arbitrary object of named values and attempts to render the referenced file as a template using HCL template syntax.

The template itself may recursively call other functions so a callback must be provided to get access to those functions. The template cannot, however, access any variables defined in the scope: it is restricted only to those variables provided in the second function argument.

As a special exception, a referenced template file may not recursively call the templatefile function, since that would risk the same file being included into itself indefinitely.

func Timestamp

func Timestamp() (cty.Value, error)

Timestamp returns a string representation of the current date and time.

In the HCL language, timestamps are conventionally represented as strings using RFC 3339 "Date and Time format" syntax, and so timestamp returns a string in this format.
