KV

KV is a set of key value pairs, where each key and value is a string. If a KV happens to contain numbers or bools then these are string representations of the numeric or boolean value.

Here is an example of a KV, the annotations of an alert:

yaml Copy

summary: 'A summary of the alert'
description: 'A description of the alert'

In addition to iterating over each key value pair, you can sort the pairs, remove keys, and iterate over just the keys or the values.

Time

Time is from the Go time package.

You can format a time in a number of different formats using the date function. For example, to print the time that an alert fired in the format 15:04:05 MST:

Copy

{{ .StartsAt | date "15:04:05 MST" }}

You can also use the tz function to change the timezone from UTC to a local time. For example:

Copy

{{ .StartsAt | tz "Europe/Paris" | date "15:04:05 MST" }}

You can find a reference for Go’s time format here.
