I’m hoping someone knows the answer to this, I’m working with variant2 and variantmod and I’m trying to pull an entire directory using variant. I can’t only figure out how to pull single files. I see in the code that Directories are supported in some fashion, I just can’t figure out the right config to pull them
ok it seems I was missing a field on my HCL to make it work. I wasn’t putting a template block in the directory block and I guess that was causing the block to not process
Maybe share an example though - since it will help others (everything is archived)
ok bakery.variantmod
module "bakery" {
directory "mods/bakery" {
source = "../module-repos/bakery"
template "test" {}
}
}
master.variant
job "bakemod" {
module = "bakery"
}
The command variant run bakemod will pull the contents of “../module-repos/bakery” and place it in “mods/bakery” after running any of the replacements in the template block.
