Access Hash Entries in ERB Template

Chef Infra (archive)

That’s not erroring out the kitchen converge run, but it’s not printing the hash values either.

I had to re-add the .to_sym option in the ERB template for the hash values to show up correctly.

So the final (working) product is:

In my recipe:

my_hash = { :key1 => 'value1', :key2 => 'value2', :key3 => 'value3', :key4 => 'value4' }

template "myfile.txt" do
  source "myfile.txt.erb"
  variables({ my_hash: my_hash })
end

In my template:

<% %w( key1 key3 ).each do |k| %>
<%= k %>: <%= @my_hash[k.to_sym] %>
<% end %>

Thanks for your help, @David_Petzel!
