Zero an object in Golang Template-CodePudding

{{ define "default.message" }}
{{- if gt (len .Alerts.Firing) 0 -}}
{{- range $index, $alert := .Alerts.Firing -}}
{{- if eq $index 0 -}}
Detail: {{ $alert.Labels.alertname }}
# Here I'm going to zero $alert
{{- end }}
{{- end }}
{{- end }}
{{- end }}

hello, I want to zero .Alerts.Firing, which is also $alert after iteration over it. I'm new to golang, Please help, thanks.

Supplement： Actually it's a template of Prometheus alert. The orginal date is created by alertmanager and send to receiver( wechat). Here is wechat template


    {{ define "wechat.default.message" }}
    {{- if gt (len .Alerts.Firing) 0 -}}
    {{- range $index, $alert := .Alerts.Firing -}}
    {{- if eq $index 0 -}}
    Detail: {{ $alert.Labels.alertname }}
    {{- end }}
    ---- Problem started ------
    Message: {{ $alert.Annotations.description }}
    Time: {{ ($alert.StartsAt.Add 28800e9).Format "2006-01-02 15:04:05" }}
    {{ if gt (len $alert.Labels.instance) 0 }}ip: {{ $alert.Labels.instance }};{{- end }}
    {{- if gt (len $alert.Labels.namespace) 0 }}namespace: {{ $alert.Labels.namespace }};{{- end }}
    {{- if gt (len $alert.Labels.node) 0 }}Node: {{ $alert.Labels.node }};{{- end }}
    {{- if gt (len $alert.Labels.pod_name) 0 }}Pod: {{ $alert.Labels.pod_name }}{{- end }}
    -----------------
    {{ $alert :="" }}
    {{- end }}
    {{- end }}

    {{- if gt (len .Alerts.Resolved) 0 -}}
    {{- range $index, $alert := .Alerts.Resolved -}}
    {{- if eq $index 0 }}

    !!!! Problem resolved !!!!!

    Detail: {{ $alert.Labels.alertname }}

    {{- end }}
    Started_at: {{ ($alert.StartsAt.Add 28800e9).Format "2006-01-02 15:04:05" }}
    Resolved_at: {{ ($alert.StartsAt.Add 28800e9).Format "2006-01-02 15:04:05" }}
    -------
    {{ if gt (len $alert.Labels.instance) 0 -}}ip: {{ $alert.Labels.instance }};{{- end }}
    {{- if gt (len $alert.Labels.namespace) 0 -}}namespace: {{ $alert.Labels.namespace }};{{- end }}
    {{- if gt (len $alert.Labels.node) 0 -}}Node: {{ $alert.Labels.node }};{{- end }}
    {{- if gt (len $alert.Labels.pod_name) 0 -}}Pod: {{ $alert.Labels.pod_name }}{{- end }}
    {{ $alert :="" }}
    -----------------
    {{- end }}
    {{- end }}
    {{- end }}

So it's hard to see the raw data sent by alertmanager. What I can see only it the result rendered by this template. Please see below.

CodePudding user response：

Just relealize it cannot be resolved by zero an object. Because：

There is no way to keep last 'resolved' host 232.20 in wechat.
Next time the raw data still contains 'resolved' host 232.20, so it cannot be removed by any means.
so the output cannot be changed, either.

Thanks.
