Go Template in YAML

Syntax highlighting for Go template expressions inside YAML, including block scalars.

YAML has no idea what {{ }} means, so a template in a manifest renders as one flat string and a typo looks exactly like correct code. Built for Crossplane compositions using function-go-templating; Helm and Argo templates get the same treatment.

Install

code --install-extension cujarrett.gotemplate-yaml

It injects into source.yaml, so every YAML file is covered with no configuration. Colors come from your theme.

Highlighting is lexical. It shows you where the code is, not whether it is correct.

Develop

package.json plus one TextMate grammar, no runtime code. just lint, just build, just run to install locally.
