I'm struggling with finding a way to include the Release.Time builtin as part of a helm name.
If I just include it as: name: {{ template "myapp.name" . }}-{{ .Release.Time }}
Dry run shows this: name: myapp-seconds:1534946206 nanos:143228281
It seems like this is a *timestamp.Timestamp object or something because {{ .Release.Time | trimPrefix "seconds:" | trunc 10 }}
outputs wrong type for value; expected string; got *timestamp.Timestamp
I can hack the string parsing by doing: {{ .Release.Time | toString | trimPrefix "seconds:" | trunc 10 }}
, but it seems like I should be able to call something on the Timestamp object to get the seconds. Is anyone aware of where the docs are for this? I can't find any reference to it at https://godoc.org/github.com/Masterminds/sprig.
to format timestamp you can use date FORMAT TIME
from sprig doc:
{{ date "20060102150405" .Release.Time }}
refer the format options here http://golang.org/src/pkg/time/format.go
But having timestamp in the name is not good idea because of upgrades.
