okay so bestie, welcome to the man(8) page for tmpl. it's giving "command line interface to Go's text/template library" and honestly? iconic. let's go. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

tmpl — Command line interface to Go's text/template library. periodt. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

tmpl [options]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so this program is a command line interface to Go's text/template library. no cap. you use it by passing in a set of JSON-encoded data and a list of template paths ending in a .tmpl extension. then the templates are processed and their results are saved to the filename with the .tmpl extension removed. the way that just works? obsessed. 👑

once your data set gets larger, it may be useful to move it to its own file instead of specifying it on the command line. lowkey a glow-up. to use a data file instead of raw JSON on the command line, use the -data argument but prefix your path with an @ symbol. yes bestie, the @ is the main character here. 🌸

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -data <string> — JSON data. that's it, that's the data. 💅
  • -help — Display usage information and exit. a little help never hurt nobody. 🎀
