hclq

A simple utility to parse HashiCorp HCL files and return values

Given:

# some.hcl
foo = "bar"
bar = {
  quux = "zounds"
}

You can extract simple values:

$ ./hclq some.hcl '{{.foo}}'
bar

Nested objects are wrapped in lists, because HCL:

$ ./hclq some.hcl '{{ (index .bar 0).quux }}'
zounds
