NAME

Template::Benchmark::Engines::TextXslate - Template::Benchmark plugin for Text::Xslate.

SYNOPSIS

Provides benchmark functions and template feature syntaxes to allow Template::Benchmark to benchmark the Text::Xslate template engine.

KNOWN ISSUES AND BUGS

Some of these issues may be due to my personal lack of understanding of the template engine in question, and shouldn't be taken as a criticism of the template engine in question.

Patches or workarounds to address these issues are welcome.

instance_reuse not available

Instance reuse in Text::Xslate is apparantly supported but doesn't appear to work with template files, only strings.

Template::Benchmark requires that instance reuse be from a disk-based template, so this cache type will be unavailable for now.

Note to self, can test error with:

#  Dies with: Xslate: Cannot load template '<input>': Xslate: Cannot find <input> (path: /tmp) at -e line 3
echo '<:= $var :>' >/tmp/xslate.txt
perl -MText::Xslate -e '$t = Text::Xslate->new(
  path => [ "/tmp" ], file => "xslate.txt" );
  print $t->render( { var => "worked" } );'

#  This works, but isn't really instance-reuse caching:
perl -MText::Xslate -e '$t = Text::Xslate->new(
  path => [ "/tmp" ] );
  print $t->render( "xslate.txt", { var => "worked" } );'
