A base64 interpolation function would be nice #2647
Conversation
Would be nice to have an interpolation function to encode a string in base64 for when the templating provider is used with cloud-config for user_data containing a write_files section. (Disclaimer: I've never written Go before, nor have I added additional change proposals for the test suite. This is maybe more of a proof of concept?)

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't think just adding this function is sufficient.
There's also a mapping from the names used in the configuration to these functions near the top of this file in func init(), where I think you'd need to add a new entry for this.

@thepastelsuit Thanks for the initial work here! This same functionality was added by the later PR #3325, so |
