I'm struggling to get custom template to work. I'm not sure if made a mistake somewhere or if this is a bug. I'm testing with the repo provided extra.flower.

# custom-template
Basically the same as the nginx-ingress chart, but using a custom template to include some other content

I had the same issue. I had to read the documentation again. Try the following, see if this helps
from helm-docs directory
helm-docs -c example-charts/ -t ./_templates.gotmpl -t README.md.gotmpl -g example-charts/custom-templateOr from example-cahrts directory
helm-docs -c . -t ./_templates.gotmpl -t README.md.gotmpl -g custom-template
