Arg returns the value of an argument in the service’s manifest Read More »

Deprecated: Use Arg instead. Args returns all arguments passed to stencil from the service’s manifest Note: This doesn’t set default values and is instead representative of _all_ data passed in its raw form. This is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. {{- (stencil.Args).name }} Read More »

Exists returns true if the file exists in the current directory Read More »

GetGlobal retrieves a global variable set by SetGlobal. The data returned from this function is unstructured so by averse to panics - look at where it was set to ensure you’re dealing with the proper type of data that you think it is. {{- /* This retrieves a global from the current context of the template module repository */}} {{ $isGeorgeCool := stencil.GetGlobal "IsGeorgeCool" }} Read More »

GetModuleHook returns a module block in the scope of this module Read More »

ReadBlocks parses a file and attempts to read the blocks from it, and their data. As a special case, if the file does not exist, an empty map is returned instead of an error. **NOTE**: This function does not guarantee that blocks are able to be read during runtime. for example, if you try to read the blocks of a file from another module there is no guarantee that that file will exist before you run this function.

ReadFile reads a file from the current directory and returns it’s contents Read More »

SetGlobal sets a global to be used in the context of the current template module repository. This is useful because sometimes you want to define variables inside of a helpers template file after doing manifest argument processing and then use them within one or more template files to be rendered; however, go templates limit the scope of symbols to the current template they are defined in, so this is not possible without external tooling like this function.
