# HCL User Functions Extension
This HCL extension allows a calling application to support user-defined
functions.
Functions are defined via a specific block type, like this:
```hcl
function "add" {
params = [a, b]
result = a + b
}
function "list" {
params = []
variadic_param = items
result = items
}
```
The extension is implemented as a pre-processor for `cty.Body` objects. Given
a body that may contain functions, the `DecodeUserFunctions` function searches
for blocks that define functions and returns a functions map suitable for
inclusion in a `hcl.EvalContext`. It also returns a new `cty.Body` that
contains the remainder of the content from the given body, allowing for
further processing of remaining content.
For more information, see [the godoc reference](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/hashicorp/hcl/v2/ext/userfunc?tab=doc).
