How do I escape this in the provisioning script

[Ranjandas]

I have a lima template with a provisioning script with the following content.

      ...
      cat <<-EOF | sudo tee -a /etc/consul.d/address.hcl
      bind_addr = "{{ GetInterfaceIP \"eth0\"}}"
      client_addr = "0.0.0.0"
      retry_join = ["{{ GetInterfaceIP \"eth0\"}}"]
      EOF
      ...

After upgrading to the latest version, I get the following warning whenever I run any limactl command. This worked fine in v0.19.1

WARN[0000] Couldn't process provisioning script "#!/bin/sh\n# setup docker repository\ndnf config-manager --add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/fedora/docker-ce.repo\n\n# install docker engine\ndnf install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin\n\n# setup hashicorp repository\n\ndnf config-manager --add-repo https://rpm.releases.hashicorp.com/fedora/hashicorp.repo\n\n# install consul and nomad\ndnf install -y consul nomad containernetworking-plugins\n\n# set the addresses so that Consul can start\n\ncat <<-EOF | sudo tee -a /etc/consul.d/address.hcl\nbind_addr = \"{{ GetInterfaceIP \\\"eth0\\\"}}\"\nclient_addr = \"0.0.0.0\"\nretry_join = [\"{{ GetInterfaceIP \\\"eth0\\\"}}\"]\nEOF\n\nsystemctl enable --now nomad consul\n" as a template  error="template: :18: function \"GetInterfaceIP\" not defined"

How do I escape the {{ }} (or any other option) inside the provisioning script, which is a gosockaddr syntax?

You can use a string constant, like so: {{"{{Curly}}"}}

See https://pkg.go.dev/text/template

Thank you @afbjorklund. That worked.

This is the change I had to make in case anyone else stumbles upon this:

      ...
      cat <<-EOF | sudo tee -a /etc/consul.d/address.hcl
      bind_addr = {{ "\"{{ GetInterfaceIP \\\"eth0\\\"}}\"" }}
      client_addr = "0.0.0.0"
      retry_join = {{ "[\"{{ GetInterfaceIP \\\"eth0\\\"}}\"]" }}
      EOF
      ...
