wrong type for value expected string; got float64

[olalonde]

I'm using --set to set facebook.appId when installing/upgrading:

     --set "facebook.appId=1333333337"

I am getting this error:

Error: UPGRADE FAILED: render error in "app/templates/secrets.yaml": template: app/templates/secrets.yaml:69:37: 
executing "app/templates/secrets.yaml" at <b64enc>: wrong typefor value; expected string; got float64

Here's the template code that uses the value:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: secret-facebook
type: Opaque
data:
  appID: {{ .Values.facebook.appId | b64enc | quote }}
  appSecret: {{ .Values.facebook.appSecret | b64enc | quote }}

I'm guessing that Helm guesses that 1333333337 in facebook.appId=1333333337 is a float64 whereas I need a way to coerce it to a string so that it's accepted by base64. Is that possible? I tried --set "facebook.appId=\"1333333337\"" and --set "facebook.appId='1333333337'" but it didn't work as expected.

Looks like duplicate of #1707

@olalonde
try this.

{{ .Values.dbInfo.db_port | replace ":" "" | b64enc }}
