I am trying to reference the CONTEXT variables from within CONTEXT. For example, I define the DOMAIN="domain.tld" and the HOSTNAME="host". I would like to have a variable FQDN="$HOST.$DOMAIN.".
I have tried to achieve the above using the following in CONTEXT section of the template. Case I -- $ onetemplate show vars TEMPLATE CONTENTS CONTEXT=[ DOMAIN="domain.tld", FQDN="$DOMAIN.$HOSTNAME.", HOSTNAME="host" ] [... output omitted for brevity ...] Instantiating the template results in the following variables added to the VM. $ onevm show vars VIRTUAL MACHINE TEMPLATE CONTEXT=[ DISK_ID="1", DOMAIN="domain.tld", *FQDN="..",* HOSTNAME="host", TARGET="hda" ] Case II -- $ onetemplate show vars CONTEXT=[ DOMAIN="domain.tld", FQDN="$CONTEXT[$DOMAIN].$CONTEXT[$HOSTNAME].", HOSTNAME="host" ] [... output omitted for brevity ...] Same result in the VM. $ onevm show vars VIRTUAL MACHINE TEMPLATE CONTEXT=[ DISK_ID="1", DOMAIN="domain.tld", *FQDN=".."*, HOSTNAME="host", TARGET="hda" ] [... output omitted for brevity ...] Is it possible to achieve what am I trying or should I search for a new solution? I have a simple use case. I am generating, via a hook, the ssh keys for the VM in question. At boot I copy the keys from /mnt to /etc/ssh via a crafted one-context script. Awesome mechanism by the way :-). I am generating the keys in CONTEXT_FILES_LOCATION=/var/lib/cloud/context/host.domain.tld. I would like to use the following in the CONTEXT section: CONTEXT=[ CONTEXT_FILES_LOCATION=/var/lib/cloud/context/host.domain.tld./, DOMAIN="domain.tld", FILES="$CONTEXT_FILES_LOCATION/$FQDN/ssh_host_rsa_key ...", HOSTNAME="host", FQDN="$HOSTNAME.$DOMAIN." ] This makes the template much more dynamic. I would just change the HOSTNAME and the paths would get generated dynamically. Any help is appreciated.
