Using functions

Call a function by name with parentheses: 
computed "image_tag" {
  expression = lower(replace(var.branch, "/", "-"))
}
Functions can be nested: 
computed "safe_name" {
  expression = trimspace(lower(env("APP_NAME", "myapp")))
}
Use functions inside string interpolation: 
task "deploy" {
  commands = [
    "docker push myapp:${substr(var.commit, 0, 8)}",
  ]
}
