Refactor, document and test value merging logic#147
Merged
Conversation
Changes the logic for merging context values to be unambiguous and easy to follow. * loadDefaultVars returns the default vars directly instead of performing merging in addition * all merging is performed in `mergeContextValues` using explicit explanations for every step of the merge. After this commit the order of merging goes from least to most "specific", please read the explanatory comments for more information. This relates to #142.
Introduces a test which will merge variables defined at every possible
layer together and ensure that the loaded context configuration is as
expected.
The test data provides an actual resource set template that can be
tested locally from a kontemplate source checkout:
kontemplate template context/testdata/merging/context.yaml --var cliVar=cliVar

I tested the branch. Its very understandable now from the comments, and the behavior is the one we were aiming for. Thanks for the fix!!! |

@tazjin do you plan to release a minor version with this change? Maybe 1.6.1? |

@merlineus No, but I'm planning to release a major version with it (1.7.0) ;-) Waiting to see if @tommyJimmy87 (who filed the original issue) has more input before moving forward. |
