Is there any way to use any random object as a tag in Twig?
I know I can set a variable - it's just that this would really be cleaner.
i.e.
{{ get_an_entry() }}
{{ name }} is {{ id }}
{{ end }}
or
{{ entry }}
{{ name }} is {{ id }}
{{ end }}
In the examples, the name and id values would come from entry or the return of get_an_entry()
Yes! It just need the __toString() PHP magic method implemented. An usage like that in fact triggers a string conversion.

I have the following values file:
MYVAR: 12123
MYVAR2: 214123
I want to iterate over them and use them as env variables in my deployment template:
env:
{{- range .Values.examplemap }}
- name: {{ .name }}
value: {{ .value }}
{{- end }}
I tried this
For iterate over a map in helm you can try put this in the values.yaml
extraEnvs:
- name: ENV_NAME_1
value: value123
- name: ENV_NAME_2
value: value123
So in your template you must iterate the extraEnvs like this:
extraEnvs:
{{- range .Values.image.extraEnvs }}
- name: {{ .name | quote }}
value: {{ .value | quote }}
{{- end }}
In the core Go text/template language, the range operator can iterate over either a list or a map. There's specific syntax to assign the key-value pairs in a map to local variables:
env:
{{- $k, $v := range .Values.examplemap }}
- name: {{ $k }}
value: {{ $v }}
{{- end }}
I have a shared metadata block, based on the commons library that I would like to override a name for one specific instance. Is it possible?
metadata:
{{ include "common.metadata" (merge (dict ".Values.fullnameSuffix" "-redirect") .) }} # Doesn't work - How do I add a `-redirect` suffix?
name: {{ include "common.fullname" . }}-redirect # Causes two `name:` attributes
Within common.metadata there is a call to "fullname" as well:
{{ define "common.metadata" -}}
name: {{ template "common.fullname" . }}
namespace: {{ .Release.Namespace }}
{{- end -}}
Is there a way to pass-down a variable override from the first include so that I can override the name:? It's specific only to this chart.
Use set to add a new key/value pair to a dictionary and pass it to slightly modified common.metadata helper function.
values.yaml
fullnameSuffix: redirect
_helpers.tpl
{{- define "common.metadata" -}}
{{- if .suffix }}
name: {{ template "common.fullname" . }}-{{ .suffix }}
{{- else }}
name: {{ template "common.fullname" . }}
{{- end }}
namespace: {{ .Release.Namespace }}
{{- end -}}
manifest.yaml
metadata:
{{- include "common.metadata" (set . "suffix" .Values.fullnameSuffix ) }}
If your fullnameSuffix is empty, name without suffix will be used.
I want to check if a template block has been defined in _helpers.tpl.
Sudo Code:
{{- if "sample.color" template is defined }}
color: {{ include "sample.color" . }}
{{- else }}
color: {{ .Values.color }}
{{- end }}
Is there a way to achieve {{- if "sample.color" template is defined }} in helm?
I am installing a helm chart which has a ingress.yaml template.
I get this error:
Error: render error in "chartmuseum/templates/ingress.yaml": template: chartmuseum/templates/ingress.yaml:35:22: executing "chartmuseum/templates/ingress.yaml" at <.Values.service.servicename>: nil pointer evaluating interface {}.service
I am not able to find where the problem is. The same set of if else structure works abolutely fine in the service.yaml of the same helm chart.
- path: {{ default "/" .path | quote }}
backend:
{{- if .Values.service.servicename }}
serviceName: {{ .Values.service.servicename }}
{{- else }}
serviceName: {{ include "chartmuseum.fullname" . }}
{{- end }}
Getting error on this line --> serviceName: {{ .Values.service.servicename }}
The code that works in service.yaml fine is
metadata:
{{- if .Values.service.servicename }}
name: {{ .Values.service.servicename }}
{{- else }}
name: {{ include "chartmuseum.fullname" . }}
{{- end }}
Expected result: if there is a servcice.servicename in values in values.yaml file , the ingress should pick the value from there for the key serviceName. Else it should include "chartmuseum.fullname".
The same structure works fine for service.yaml.
Below is the url of the original helm chart that i am using.
https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/chartmuseum
I just modified the ingress.yaml to add if else block around line 31.
Ingress.yaml https://github.com/helm/charts/blob/master/stable/chartmuseum/templates/ingress.yaml
Values.yaml file is insignificant. I have the below values in it
service:
servicename: helm-charts-test
but even without this value, the if else block is expected to work.
What you're seeing is a weird caveat in Go templating. Your conditional logic is being evaluated inside a range loop. This means . you're using to access Values is not the one you expect it to be, as it's overridden for each range iteration evaluation.
You can use $, which references the global scope in order to access the Values as expected.
For your scenario, it would be something like:
- path: {{ default "/" .path | quote }}
backend:
{{- if $.Values.service.servicename }}
serviceName: {{ $.Values.service.servicename }}
{{- else }}
serviceName: {{ include "chartmuseum.fullname" $ }}
{{- end }}
See here for more details.
I followed this answer by #Torrey and replaced
targetPort: {{ .Values.non_existing.port | default 1234 }}
with
targetPort: {{ (.Values.non_existing).port | default 1234 }}
and it worked
I need to define a variable based on an if statement and use that variable multiple times.
In order not to repeat the if I tried something like this:
{{ if condition}}
{{ $my_val = "http" }}
{{ else }}
{{ $my_val = "https" }}
{{ end }}
{{ $my_val }}://google.com
However this returns an error:
Error: render error in "templates/deployment.yaml":
template: templates/deployment.yaml:30:28:
executing "templates/deployment.yaml" at
<include (print $.Template.BasePath "/config.yaml") .>: error calling
include: template: templates/config.yaml:175:59:
executing "templates/config.yaml" at <"https">: undefined variable: $my_val
Ideas?
The most direct path to this is to use the ternary function provided by the Sprig library. That would let you write something like
{{ $myVal := ternary "http" "https" condition -}}
{{ $myVal }}://google.com
A simpler, but more indirect path, is to write a template that generates the value, and calls it
{{- define "scheme" -}}
{{- if condition }}http{{ else }}https{{ end }}
{{- end -}}
{{ template "scheme" . }}://google.com
If you need to include this in another variable, Helm provides an include function that acts just like template except that it's an "expression" rather than something that outputs directly.
{{- $url := printf "%s://google.com" (include "scheme" .) -}}
