v3.11.3

This is a very minor patch release to update a dependency that's causing gomplate to trigger vulnerability scanners for CVE-2022-27664.

To the best of my understanding gomplate is not vulnerable, as it doesn't expose any HTTP servers - this patch release is purely to help vulnerability scans pass!

What's Changed

• Bump dependencies with unrelated CVEs by @hairyhenderson in #1501

Full Changelog: v3.11.2...v3.11.3

v3.11.2

Another patch release to allow gomplate to be compiled with Go 1.19.

What's Changed

• [3.11.x backport] Fixing flakey LookupIP test by @hairyhenderson in #1470
• [3.11.x backport] Update inet.af/netaddr so gomplate builds with Go 1.19 by @hairyhenderson in #1469
• [3.11.x backport] Switch to golangci-lint GitHub Action by @hairyhenderson in #1473
• Lint fixes (for 3.11.x) by @hairyhenderson in #1471

Full Changelog: v3.11.1...v3.11.2

v3.11.1

Just a simple patch release to fix a bug that prevented the go install installation method.

What's Changed

• Enable CI for 3.11.x branch by @hairyhenderson in #1431
• Use temporary fork of gopkg.in/yaml.v3 by @hairyhenderson in #1430

Full Changelog: v3.11.0...v3.11.1

Deprecations

I'm starting to work on gomplate v4, the next major release (with breaking
changes). In preparation for this, I'm listing some features as deprecated (see
the deprecation policy). Note that some of these may have been
deprecated for a while, but I'd like to call them out explicitly here.

• The BoltDB
  datasource is now deprecated (see this discussion),
  and will be removed in v4.0.0.
• The slim binaries are deprecated, and will no longer be produced starting
  with v4.0.0.
• A number of functions are deprecated, though not all will be removed in v4:
  • strings.Sort (use coll.Sort instead)
  • conv.Dict (use coll.Dict instead)
  • conv.Slice (use coll.Slice instead)
  • conv.Has (use coll.Has instead)
  • conv.Bool (use conv.ToBool instead)
• The array form of configuring nested templates is deprecated, and a new map-
  based form is now available. This will be removed in v4.

Release Notes

New features and changes

• #1422 New experimental gomplate.Renderer API is available for rendering templates programmatically. This should be of interest for developers wishing to use gomplate as a library. See the Go docs for examples.
• #1410 Nested templates can now be referenced by URL and not just by path.

    • Currently, only the file: URL scheme is supported. The full set of datasource URL schemes will be supported in a future release.

v3.8.0

It's time for another gomplate release, and this time we have a good number of bug fixes, new functions, and updated dependencies.

Thanks to @surki and @jen20 for their contributions to this release!

Of particular note is the new experimental mode which you can use to try out some new functionality that isn't ready to be "locked in" just yet.

In particular, there are now some new RSA Encryption/Decryption functions, including crypto.RSAGenerateKey, which gives you a way to quickly generate an RSA encryption key pair! The reason these are experimental is because I'm not sure about the UX yet, and the function names may change in a future release.

Be sure to check out the multi-platform Docker images available at hairyhenderson/gomplate.
