Hi Bas,
Out of curiosity I've been experimenting with different approaches but only
yours works and I have no clue why.. Is there anything I can learn / read
/ study to understand why? Without having to study C++ (or python for that
matter as I can't even tell them apart ;-)
Is this basic lambda programming or very specific to Nix?
Works
builtins.readFile (./keys + "/${name}")
Doesn't work
builtins.readFile (./keys/ + "${name}") - unexpected +
builtins.readFile (./keys/ + name) - unexpected +
builtins.readFile (./keys + "/" + name") - no build errors, but doesn't
parse the / in the middle -> ./keysmancloud.amazon.iam.key_id -> not found
Kind regards and thanks again, my key deployment sections have become very
compact and maintainable now..
Erik
