Can't run command as part of helm template

[isihu]

Hi there,

I would like lovely to use any "values*.yaml" file it finds in the directory.
I tried it with

env:
  - name: LOVELY_HELM_TEMPLATE_PARAMS
    value: $(find . -name "values*.yaml" | sort | awk '{ printf "-f %s ", $0 }')

That doesn't work as the command is split and not executed as part of the helm command.

Another thing I've tried is setting LOVELY_HELM_TEMPLATE_PARAMS variable as part of a preprocessors, but it seems it doesn't get propagated back to the plugin (which makes sense).

One possibility would be to use a different symbol to split the params. Or the params aren't split at escaped whitespaces "\ ". I'd be happy to provide a PR if wanted.

Are there other possibilities to achieve what I want?

Kind regards

What's your use case. Why can't you rename your values.yaml to be that? Or are you wanting all of the values*.yamls to be thrown at helm in any order rather than a well known order?

The latter but ordered alphabetically.
