Jinja2 is a fast and straightforward templating engine. You can use this action

to easily run it in your GitHub workflows.

# Using input variables

```yml

- name: Setup nginx

  uses: cuchi/[email protected]

  with:

    template: infra/nginx.conf.j2

    output_file: infra/nginx.conf

    strict: true

    variables: |

      server_host=staging.example.com

      timeout=30s

```

# Using data files

```yml

- name: Setup nginx

  uses: cuchi/[email protected]

  with:

    template: infra/nginx.conf.j2

    output_file: infra/nginx.conf

    data_file: staging_config.json

    data_format: json # Will try to guess from the extension instead (unnecessary in this case)

```

# Using environment variables

```yml

- name: Setup nginx

  uses: cuchi/[email protected]

  with:

    template: infra/nginx.conf.j2

    output_file: infra/nginx.conf

  env:

    SERVER_HOST: staging.example.com

```

Environment variables are used this way in the template file:

```

{{ env['SERVER_HOST'] }} <-- This is always strict

```

```

{{ env.get('SERVER_HOST') }} <-- This is never strict, and displays `None` if you don't specify a default value

```
