Method SetAttributeTraversal

hclwrite/ast_body.go:204–215

SetAttributeTraversal either replaces the expression of an existing attribute of the given name or adds a new attribute definition to the end of the body. The new expression is given as a hcl.Traversal, which must be an absolute traversal. To set a literal value, use SetAttributeValue. The return

(name string, traversal hcl.Traversal)

// The return value is the attribute that was either modified in-place or
// created.
func (b *Body) SetAttributeTraversal(name string, traversal hcl.Traversal) *Attribute {
	attr := b.GetAttribute(name)
	expr := NewExpressionAbsTraversal(traversal)
	if attr != nil {
		attr.expr = attr.expr.ReplaceWith(expr)
	} else {
		attr := newAttribute()
		attr.init(name, expr)
		b.appendItem(attr)
	}
	return attr
}

// RemoveAttribute removes the attribute with the given name from the body.
