cloudfoam's Issues

Add templates supporting JSON syntax.

This will be a long living ticket, but I only write YAML so if anyone looking at this repository is interested in writing stuff up for the JSON syntax, that would be great. I don't write it, but even I'd find it useful being able to see how they layout and whatnot.

Find a clean/concise way to represent important information regarding attributes

I'm trying to work out a clean and effective way of including information like required and conditionals without clogging the templates up and distracting from the yaml content. I suspect comments would do this. Ideally I'd like to still enable people to use these as base templates for their infrastructure, and if there is too much other information in them, it'll result in people having to delete heaps of information. But on the other side of it, that's also a good thing about commenting, as people could technically leave it in the templates.

Create a mapping structure so users can identify copy operations with more human titles.

IE: instead of cloudfoam AWS::EC2::Subnet.yaml

use: cloudfoam ec2_subnet
