Very simple templating system that replaces
{{VAR}} in template files with the value of
the environment variable $VAR environment value
Supports default values by writting {{VAR=value}}
in templates
To install templater on linux or mac type:
$ PREFIX=/usr/local/bin make install
$ VAR=value templater <template>
Read variables from file:
$ templater <template> -f variables.txt
If you have a file named .env in your calling directory, templater will automatically
load the variables specified in you .env file into its environment
Example:
To stop templater from printing warning messages
$ templater <template> -s`
Templater will also read files from a directory
$ templater <template-dir>
Templater will by default render the templates witha default delimiter of \n---\n
but you can set this to be anything you like by using the -d option for example
$ templater <template-dir> -d "####DELIMITER####"
will separate template file with the string ####DELIMITER####
Templater does not use getopts to get options so stringing options like -ps is not supported.
See examples
Use my simple testing script bashtest
run this in the main project directory
$ bashtest
