file.content should support loading from external files
Inline content can become hard to work with when dealing with larger files (config files, for example). The module should be able to load a template from a file on disk.
This is part of a larger arc of "being able to load in content from external files".
I'm seeing a couple steps here:
- implement a
{{file "filename"}}
template function - use that call to create a query node that just has that info
But it's got to be in the graph, so it's a little more work than "here read this", which is why we haven't added it yet.
Update from planning meeting discussion: this makes sense as a part of the file download module, #250
@ryane Hey there, a temporary workaround can be done by pre-fetching hairyhenderson/gomplate and executing it inside task
