Hi Pratik, what would be the aim for this templating? I ask since we in Heat try to keep the imperative logic like e.g. if-else out of heat templates, leaving it to other services. Plus there is already a spec for a heat template function to repeat pieces of template structure [1].
I can definitely say that some other OpenStack projects that are consumers of Heat will be interested - Trove already tries to use Jinja templates to create Heat templates [2], and possibly Sahara and Murano might be interested as well (I suspect though the latter already uses YAQL for that).
