Dynamic Configuration with HCL

Quick play with Go HCL to understand how it could be used as a dynamic configuration file mechanism.

Would probably split into a hierarchy of context specific hcl.EvalContexts for reusability, maybe something like:

• ctx
  • stdlib
  • envfuncs
  • awsStsContext

Using fields as input to other fields e.g. email = split(":", principal)[1] is more complex (see second links below if required in the future).

• Defining Variables
• Defining Functions
• Interdependent Blocks
• Description of Multiple Phases
