NAME

       cdist-type__consul_template_template - Manage consul-template templates

DESCRIPTION

       Generate      and      deploy      template      definitions      for     a     consul-template.      See
       https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-template#examples for documentation.  Templates are written in the Go
       template format.  Either the --source or the --source-file parameter must be given.

REQUIRED PARAMETERS

       destination
              the destination where the generated file should go.

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

       command
              an optional command to run after rendering the template to its destination.

       source path to the template source. Conflicts --source-file.

       source-file
              path  to  a  local  file which is uploaded using the __file type and configured as the source.  If
              source is '-' (dash), take what was written to stdin as the file content.  Conflicts --source.

       state  if this template is 'present' or 'absent'. Defaults to 'present'.

       wait   The minimum(:maximum) time to wait before rendering a  new  template  to  disk  and  triggering  a
              command,  separated  by a colon (:). If the optional maximum value is omitted, it is assumed to be
              4x the required minimum value.  This is a numeric time with a unit  suffix  ("5s").  There  is  no
              default value.  The wait value for a template takes precedence over any globally-configured wait.

EXAMPLES

          # configure template on the target
          __consul_template_template nginx \
             --source /etc/my-consul-templates/nginx.ctmpl \
             --destination /etc/nginx/nginx.conf \
             --command 'service nginx restart'

          # upload a local file to the target and configure it
          __consul_template_template nginx \
             --wait '2s:6s' \
             --source-file "$__manifest/files/nginx.ctmpl" \
             --destination /etc/nginx/nginx.conf \
             --command 'service nginx restart'
