# Template functions
The [text template](https://golang.org/pkg/text/template) format used in `| line_format` and `| label_format` support the usage of functions.
All labels are added as variables in the template engine. They can be referenced using they label name prefixed by a `.`(e.g `.label_name`). For example the following template will output the value of the path label:
```template
{{ .path }}
```
Additionally you can also access the log line using the [`__line__`](#__line__) function and the timestamp using the [`__timestamp__`](#__timestamp__) function.
You can take advantage of [pipeline](https://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#hdr-Pipelines) to join together multiple functions.
In a chained pipeline, the result of each command is passed as the last argument of the following command.
Example:
```template
{{ .path | replace " " "_" | trunc 5 | upper }}
```
For function that returns a `bool` such as `contains`, `eq`, `hasPrefix` and `hasSuffix`, you can apply `AND` / `OR` and nested `if` logic.
Example:
```template
{{ if and (contains "he" "hello") (contains "llo" "hello") }} yes {{end}}
{{ if or (contains "he" "hello") (contains("llo" "hello") }} yes {{end}}
{{ if contains .err "ErrTimeout" }} timeout {{else if contains "he" "hello"}} yes {{else}} no {{end}}
```
## __line__
This function returns the current log line.
Signature: `line() string`
Examples:
```template
"{{ __line__ | lower }}"
`{{ __line__ }}`
```
## __timestamp__
This function returns the current log lines timestamp.
Signature: `timestamp() time.Time`
```template
"{{ __timestamp__ }}"
`{{ __timestamp__ | date "2006-01-02T15:04:05.00Z-07:00" }}`
`{{ __timestamp__ | unixEpoch }}`
```
See the blog: [Parsing and formatting date/time in Go](https://www.pauladamsmith.com/blog/2011/05/go_time.html) for more information.
## regexReplaceAll and regexReplaceAllLiteral
`regexReplaceAll` returns a copy of the input string, replacing matches of the Regexp with the replacement string replacement. Inside string replacement, $ signs are interpreted as in Expand, so for instance $1 represents the text of the first sub-match. See the golang [Regexp.replaceAll documentation](https://golang.org/pkg/regexp/#Regexp.ReplaceAll) for more examples.
Example:
```template
`{{ regexReplaceAll "(a*)bc" .some_label "${1}a" }}`
```
`regexReplaceAllLiteral` function returns a copy of the input string and replaces matches of the Regexp with the replacement string replacement. The replacement string is substituted directly, without using Expand.
Example:
```template
`{{ regexReplaceAllLiteral "(ts=)" .timestamp "timestamp=" }}`
```
## lower
Use this function to convert to lower case.
Signature: `lower(string) string`
Examples:
```template
"{{ .request_method | lower }}"
`{{ lower "HELLO"}}`
```
The last example will return `hello`.
## upper
Use this function to convert to upper case.
Signature: `upper(string) string`
Examples:
```template
"{{ .request_method | upper }}"
`{{ upper "hello"}}`
```
This results in `HELLO`.
## title
Convert to title case.
Signature: `title(string) string`
Examples:
```template
"{{.request_method | title}}"
`{{ title "hello world"}}`
```
The last example will return `Hello World`.
## trunc
Truncate a string and add no suffix.
Signature: `trunc(count int,value string) string`
Examples:
```template
"{{ .path | trunc 2 }}"
`{{ trunc 5 "hello world"}}` // output: hello
`{{ trunc -5 "hello world"}}` // output: world
```
## substr
Get a substring from a string.
Signature: `substr(start int,end int,value string) string`
If start is < 0, this calls value[:end].
If start is >= 0 and end < 0 or end bigger than s length, this calls value[start:]
Otherwise, this calls value[start, end].
Examples:
```template
"{{ .path | substr 2 5 }}"
`{{ substr 0 5 "hello world"}}` // output: hello
`{{ substr 6 11 "hello world"}}` // output: world
```
## replace
This function performs simple string replacement.
Signature: `replace(old string, new string, src string) string`
It takes three arguments:
- `old` string to replace
- `new` string to replace with
- `src` source string
Examples:
```template
{{ .cluster | replace "-cluster" "" }}
{{ replace "hello" "world" "hello world" }}
```
The last example will return `world world`.

```template
{{ .path | trimAll "/" }}
{{ trimAll "$" "$5.00" }} // output: 5.00
```
## trimSuffix
Use this function to trim just the suffix from a string.
Signature: `trimSuffix(suffix string, src string) string`
Examples:
```template
{{ .path | trimSuffix "/" }}
{{ trimSuffix "-" "hello-" }} // output: hello
```
## trimPrefix

```template
{{ .path | trimPrefix "/" }}
{{ trimPrefix "-" "-hello" }} // output: hello
```
## alignLeft

Signature: `alignLeft(count int, src string) string`
Examples:
```template
`{{ alignLeft 5 "hello world"}}` // output: "hello"
`{{ alignLeft 5 "hi"}}` // output: "hi "
```
## alignRight
Use this function to format a string to a fixed with, aligning the content to the right.
Signature: `alignRight(count int, src string) string`
