# Template fields
|
|
|
|
In order to provide flexible configuration, Renovate supports using "templates" for certain fields like `addLabels`, `branchName`, `extractVersionTemplate`, `labels`.
|
|
|
|
Renovate's templates use [handlebars](https://handlebarsjs.com/) under the hood.
|
|
You can recognize templates when you see strings like `{{depName}}` in configuration fields.
|
|
|
|
Below you can find lists of fields/values that you can use in templates.
|
|
Some are configuration options passed through, while others are generated as part of Renovate's run.
|
|
|
|
`logJSON` and `releases` are only allowed in `commitBody` template.
|
|
|
|
## Exposed config options
|
|
|
|
<!-- Autogenerate in https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate -->
|
|
<!-- Autogenerate end -->
|
|
|
|
<!-- Automatically insert exposed configuration options here -->
|
|
|
|
## Other available fields
|
|
|
|
<!-- Autogenerate in https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate -->
|
|
<!-- Autogenerate end -->
|
|
|
|
<!-- Insert runtime fields here -->
|

|
## Additional Handlebars helpers
|
|
|
|
### and
|
|
|
|
Returns `true` only if all expressions are `true`.
|
|
|
|
`{{#if (and isMajor hasReleaseNotes)}}Backwards Incompatible release! Check out the Release notes.{{/if}}`
|
|
|
|
In the example above, it will only show a text if `isMajor=true` and `hasReleaseNotes=true`.
|
|
|
|
### containsString
|
|
|
|
Returns `true` if a given string is a substring.
|
|
|
|
`{{#if (containsString depName 'python')}}Python{{else}}Other{{/if}}`
|
|
|
|
### decodeURIComponent
|
|
|
|
If you want to decode a percent-encoded string, use the built-in function `decodeURIComponent` like this:
|
|
|
|
`{{{decodeURIComponent depName}}}`
|
|
|
|
In the example above `depName` is the string you want to decode.
|
|
|
|
Read the [MDN Web Docs, decodeURIComponent()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/decodeURIComponent) to learn more.
|
|
|
|
### distinct
|
|
|
|
Removes duplicate elements from an array.
|
|
|
|
`{{#each (distinct (lookupArray (lookupArray upgrades "prBodyDefinitions") "Issue"))}} {{{.}}}{{/each}}`
|
|
|
|
### encodeBase64
|
|
|
|
If you want to convert a string to Base64, use the built-in function `encodeBase64` like this:
|
|
|
|
`{{{encodeBase64 body}}}`
|
|
|
|
In the example above `body` is the string you want to transform into a Base64-encoded value.
|
|
|
|
### encodeURIComponent
|
|
|
|
If you want to convert a string to a valid URI, use the built-in function `encodeURIComponent` like this:
|
|
|
|
`{{{encodeURIComponent baseDir}}}`
|
|
|
|
In the example above `baseDir` is the string you want to transform into a valid URI.
|
|
|
|
Read the [MDN Web Docs, encodeURIComponent()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/encodeURIComponent) to learn more.
|
|
|
|
### equals
|
|
|
|
Returns `true` if two values equals (checks strict equality, i.e. `===`).
|
|
|
|
`{{#if (equals datasource 'git-refs')}}git-refs{{else}}Other{{/if}}`
|
|
|
|
### lookupArray
|
|
|
|
Similar to the built-in [`lookup`](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/builtin-helpers.html#lookup)
|
|
helper, but performs lookups in every element of an array, instead of just one object.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
`{{#each (lookupArray upgrades "prBodyDefinitions")}} {{{Issue}}}{{/each}}`
|
|
|
|
will produce the same output as:
|
|
|
|
`{{#each upgrades}}{{#with prBodyDefinitions}} {{{Issue}}}{{/with}}{{/each}}`.
|
|
|
|
The return value of `lookupArray` can be passed to other helpers - for example,
|
|
to `distinct`.
|
|
|
|
### lowercase
|
|
|
|
The `lowercase` helper converts a given string to lower case.
|
|
|
|
`{{{ lowercase depName }}}`
|
|
|
|
### or
|
|
|
|
Returns `true` if at least one expression is `true`.
|
|
|
|
`{{#if (or isPatch isSingleVersion}}Small update, safer to merge and release.{{else}}Check out the changelog for all versions before merging!{{/if}}`
|
|
|
|
### replace
|
|
|
|
The `replace` helper replaces _all_ found strings matching the given regex with the replacement string.
|
|
If you want to replace some characters in a string, use the built-in function `replace` like this:
|
|
|
|
`{{{replace '[a-z]+\.github\.com' 'ghc' depName}}}`
|
|
|
|
In the example above all matches of the regex `[a-z]+\.github\.com` will be replaced by `ghc` in `depName`.
|
|
|
|
Read the [MDN Web Docs, String.prototype.replace()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/replace) to learn more.
|
|
|
|
### split
|
|
|
|
Splits a string into an array of substrings.
|
|
|
|
This example splits a package name by `-` and gets the second part:
|
|
`{{ lookup (split packageName '-') 1 }}`
|
|
An input of `foo-bar-test` therefor would return `bar`.
|
|
|
|
### stringToPrettyJSON
|
|
|
|
If you want to print pretty JSON with Handlebars you can use the built-in function `stringToPrettyJSON` like this:
|
|
|
|
`{{{stringToPrettyJSON myvar}}}`
|
|
|
|
In the example above `myvar` is a variable/field, that has valid JSON.
|
|
|
|
### toArray
|
|
|
|
If you want to convert elements to an array, use `toArray`, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
`{{{ toJSON (toArray 'value1' 'value2' 'value3') }}}` will render `["value1","value2","value3"]`.
|
|
|
|
### toJSON
|
|
|
|
If you want to convert an object to a JSON string, you can use the built-in function `toJSON` like this:
|
|
|
|
`{{{ toJSON upgrades }}}`
|
|
|
|
### toObject
|
|
|
|
If you want to convert key-value pairs to an object, use `toObject`, e.g.,
|
|
|
|
`{{{ toJSON (toObject 'key1' 'value1' 'key2' 'value2') }}}` will render `{"key1":"value1","key2":"value2"}`.
|
|
|
|
## Environment variables
|
|
|
|
By default, you can only access a handful of basic environment variables like `HOME` or `PATH`.
|
|
This is for security reasons.
|
|
|
|
`HOME is {{env.HOME}}`
|
|
|
|
If you're self-hosting Renovate, you can expose more variables with the [`customEnvVariables`](./self-hosted-configuration.md#customenvvariables) config option.
|
|
|
|
You can also use the [`exposeAllEnv`](./self-hosted-configuration.md#exposeallenv) config option to allow all environment variables in templates, but make sure to consider the security implications of giving the scripts unrestricted access to all variables.
