NAME
Prancer::Plugin::Xslate
SYNOPSIS
This plugin provides access to the Text::Xslate templating engine for your Prancer application and exports a keyword to access the configured engine.
This template plugin supports setting the basic configuration in your Prancer
application's configuration file. You can also configure all options at runtime
using arguments to render.
To set a configuration in your application's configuration file, begin the
configuration block with template and put all options underneath that. For
example:
template:
cache_dir: /path/to/cache
verbose: 2
Any option for Text::Xslate whose value can be expressed in a configuration file can be put into your application's configuration. Then using the template engine is as simple as this:
use Prancer::Plugin::Xslate qw(render);
my $plugin = Prancer::Plugin::Xslate->load();
$plugin->add_module("Data::Dumper");
print render("foobar.tx", \%vars);
However, there are some configuration options that cannot be expressed in
configuration files, especially the functions option. So there is a second
way to handle that.
print render("foobar.tx", \%vars, {
'function' => {
'md5_hex' => sub {
return Digest::MD5::md5_hex(@_);
}
}
});
The optional third argument to render can be a hashref with additional,
overriding options for Text::Xslate.
METHODS
-
path
This will set the
pathoption for Text::Xslate to anything that Text::Xslate suports. Each call to this method will overwrite whatever the previous template path was. For example:# sets template path to just /path/to/templates $plugin->path('/path/to/templates'); # blows away /path/to/templates set previously and sets it to this arrayref $plugin->path([ '/path/to/global-templates', '/path/to/local-templates' ]); # blows away the arrayref set previously and sets it to this hashref $plugin->path({ 'foo.tx' => '<html><body><: $foo :><br/></body></html>', 'bar.tx' => 'Hello, <: $bar :>.', }); -
mark_raw, unmark_raw, html_escape, uri_escape
Proxies access to the static functions of the same name provided in Text::Xslate. These can all be called statically or an instance of the plugin and all will work just fine. All of these can also be exported on demand. For more information on how to use these functions, read the Text::Xslate documentation.
