# Template GoTemplate
This is an example of implementing a template function using a `go` template.
This example uses a more sophisticated approach for building abstractions.
## Function implementation
The function is implemented as an [image](image), and built using `make image`.
The template is implemented as a go program with a `go` template. It parses the
functionConfig into a `go` struct and uses the `kyaml` module for parsing the
function input, and writing the function output.
1. read the inputs (stdin)
2. apply filters
- (custom filter) generate the nginx Deployment and Service from go templates using the
functionConfig as the template input.
- merge the generated Deployment and Service with the input Deployment and Service if
present
- set filenames on the Resources (`NAME.yaml`)
- format the Resources
3. write the outputs (stdout)
## Function invocation
The function is invoked by authoring a [local Resource](local-resource)
with `metadata.annotations.[config.kubernetes.io/function]` and running:
kustomize config run local-resource/
This generates the `local-resource/config` directory containing the template output.
- the template output may be modified by adding fields -- such as initContainers,
sidecarConatiners, cpu resource limits, etc -- and these fields will be retained
when re-running `run`
- the function input `example-use.yaml` may be changed and rerunning `run` will update
only the parts changed in the template output.
## Running the Example
Run the config with:
kustomize config run local-resource/
This will create the directory
local-resource/config
Add an annotation to the Deployment Resource and change the replica count of the
`kind: Nginx` Resource in `example-use.yaml`. Rerun the template:
kustomize config run local-resource/
The replica count should be updated, but your annotation should remain.
