Data Conversion

Data Conversion #

data #

func data(data interface{}, context ...interface{}) interface{}

Tries to parse the given input string as a data structure. This
function supports JSON, HCL and YAML. If the context argument is
omitted, the default context is used.

Note that this function attempts to template the given input string.
This means that if the input string contains gotemplate expressions,
those will be evaluated. This behavior is deprecated and will be
removed in future versions of gotemplate. If you are using this
behavior, please use `@data(include("..."))` or `{{ data (include
"...") }` to future proof your code.
