Insert values into template
I have 2 files.

Code:
Template file:
[TYPE]SELECT[/TYPE]
[BEGIN][/BEGIN]
[END][/END]
[SECTION]NAME = ""[/SECTION]
[VALUE]DEATILS[/VALUE]

Code:
Input file:
SERVER1 06/05/2016 10:00:00 06/05/2016 05:08:59
SERVER2 06/04/2016 09:50:00 06/05/2016 01:03:59
SERVER3 06/06/2016 11:26:00 06/06/2016 10:31:55

I want to generate the output file that look like this:
Code:
[TYPE]SELECT[/TYPE]
[BEGIN]06/05/2016 10:00:00[/BEGIN]
[END]06/05/2016 05:08:59[/END]
[SECTION]NAME = "SERVER1"[/SECTION]
[VALUE]DEATILS[/VALUE]
[TYPE]SELECT[/TYPE]
[BEGIN]06/04/2016 09:50:00[/BEGIN]
[END]06/05/2016 01:03:59[/END]
[SECTION]NAME = "SERVER2"[/SECTION]
[VALUE]DEATILS[/VALUE]
[TYPE]SELECT[/TYPE]
[BEGIN]06/06/2016 11:26:00[/BEGIN]
[END]06/06/2016 10:31:55[/END]
[SECTION]NAME = "SERVER3"[/SECTION]
[VALUE]DEATILS[/VALUE]

My code is working fine but i dont want to hardcode the template contents inside the script. I need to read the template and then generate the output file.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Code:
for Line in `cat ${inputfile}`
do
ServerName=`echo $Line|awk '{print $1}`
STARTDATETIME=`echo $Line|awk '{print $2,$3}`
ENDDATETIME=`echo $Line|awk '{print $4,$5}`
echo "[TYPE]SELECT[/TYPE]
[BEGIN]${STARTDATETIME}[/BEGIN]
[END]${ENDDATETIME}[/END]
[SECTION]NAME= \"${ServerName}\"[/SECTION]
[VALUE]DEATILS[/VALUE]" >>outputfile.txt
done

perl::critic::policy::controlstructures::prohibitlabelswithspeci

Perl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitLabelsWUserpContriPerl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitLabelsWithSpecialBlockNames(3)

NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitLabelsWithSpecialBlockNames - Don't use labels that are the same as the special block
       names.

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       When using one of the special Perl blocks "BEGIN", "END", "CHECK", "INIT", and "UNITCHECK", it is easy to mistakenly add a colon to the end
       of the block name.  E.g.:

	   # a BEGIN block that gets executed at compile time.
	   BEGIN { <...code...> }

	   # an ordinary labeled block that gets executed at run time.
	   BEGIN: { <...code...> }

       The labels "BEGIN:", "END:", etc. are probably errors.  This policy prohibits the special Perl block names from being used as labels.

CONFIGURATION

       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
