It would be great to be able to expose an attribute(s) from a recipe.rb file so that it can be used in a build toolchain. For instance, one might have a system that:
bumps the version
runs fpm-cook package
runs lintian on the built package
pushes the built packages to one or more apt repositories
Currently such a thing would require either grep on the recipe.rb file - blech - or knowing what the attributes are, which doesn't lend itself well to generic build processes.
Instead, it would be great to have something like the following:
Which would spit out a "formatted" version of a recipe's attributes. FWIW, the inspect call templating is inspired by the one from docker, which are more or less like golang templates.
