execute-template [template...]
Execute templates. This is useful for testing templates or for calling chezmoi from other scripts. templates are interpreted as literal templates, with no whitespace added to the output between arguments. If no templates are specified, the template is read from stdin.
Flags
-i, --init
Include simulated functions only available during chezmoi init.
--left-delimiter delimiter
Set the left template delimiter.
--promptBool pairs
Simulate the promptBool template function with a function that returns values
from pairs. pairs is a comma-separated list of prompt=value pairs. If
promptBool is called with a prompt that does not match any of pairs, then
it returns false.
--promptChoice pairs
Simulate the promptChoice template function with a function that returns
values from pairs. pairs is a comma-separated list of prompt=value
pairs. If promptChoice is called with a prompt that does not match any of
pairs, then it returns false.
--promptInt pairs
Simulate the promptInt template function with a function that returns values
from pairs. pairs is a comma-separated list of prompt=value pairs. If
promptInt is called with a prompt that does not match any of pairs, then
it returns zero.
-p, --promptString pairs
Simulate the promptString template function with a function that returns
values from pairs. pairs is a comma-separated list of prompt=value
pairs. If promptString is called with a prompt that does not match any of
pairs, then it returns prompt unchanged.
--right-delimiter delimiter
Set the right template delimiter.
--stdinisatty bool
Simulate the stdinIsATTY function by returning bool.
--with-stdin
If run with arguments, then set .chezmoi.stdin to the contents of the standard
input.
