This is containerized jinja2-cli built on top of Alpine Linux.
## To Use
A convenience wrapper, `jinja2-cli` is provided to simplify use.
```bash
./jinja2-cli template.j2 data.json > output_file
```
By default, the current directory is bind-mounted to the container
so files (and subdirectories) located in the current directory are
available to the container. So, for example, this will work:
```bash
./jinja2-cli templates/foo.j2.txt data.json > foo.txt
```
However, this will not:
```bash
./jinja2-cli ../templates/foo.j2.txt data.json > foo.txt
```
### Specifying a Directory
In situations like those, the environment variable `directory`
will need to used to indicate a directory that contains all
of the files and directories:
```bash
directory=../ bin/jinja2-cli templates/foo.j2.txt data/data.json > foo.txt
```
### Specifying a Username
By default, the container runs with the UID of the current user. This
ought not be major concern as `jinja2-cli` does not write to the filesystem
by default; it may, however, be an issue if a template or data file isn't
readable by the current user.
### Command Line Arguments
Arguments passed to jinja2-cli will be passed to the container; these
may include files in the container, CLI options, etc..
```bash
./jinja2-cli template.j2.txt data.json --format=json
```
Additional information may be found on the jinja2-cli's README.md:
[Jinja2-cli Usage](https://github.com/mattrobenolt/jinja2-cli/#Usage)
### Data Format Support
The containerized application supports the following data formats:
- ini
- json
- querystring
- yaml
- yml
- toml
- auto
## To Build
```bash
docker build -t tagname .
```
