Boolean Flags with Default Values for Custom Commands

Custom commands now support boolean flags with configurable default values. You can define type: bool flags that default to true or false, making it easier to handle special behavior triggers.

What Changed

Previously, boolean flags in custom commands always defaulted to false. Now you can specify any default value:

commands:
  - name: deploy
    flags:
      - name: auto-approve
        type: bool
        default: true        # Now supported!
      - name: dry-run
        type: bool
        default: false
    steps:
      - |
        {{ if .Flags.auto-approve }}
        terraform apply -auto-approve
        {{ else }}
        terraform apply
        {{ end }}

Using Boolean Flags

Boolean values render directly as true or false in templates:

steps:
  # Direct usage - renders as "true" or "false"
  - echo "Auto-approve is {{ .Flags.auto-approve }}"

  # Conditional logic
  - |
    {{ if .Flags.verbose }}
    set -x
    {{ end }}

String Flag Defaults

String flags also support default values now:

flags:
  - name: environment
    default: "development"
  - name: format
    default: "json"
