  2. Examples

Usage

The plugin supports two parameters. Choose either or both. If both are provided, the plugin will merge or replace value with the value of merge.key in merge.file.

  • value: A string or structure of values to parse with erb
  • merge: (optional)
    • file: yaml file to load, defaults to override.yaml
    • key: key in the file to merge with the optional value parameter

merge.file variables can be referenced by inline erb using the builtin variable @dynaml. Key names are symbols.
