NAME

Dancer2::Template::Simple - Pure Perl 5 template engine for Dancer2

VERSION

version 1.1.2

SYNOPSIS

To use this engine, you may configure Dancer2 via "config.yaml":

    template: simple

DESCRIPTION

This template engine is primarily to serve as a migration path for users of Dancer. It should be fine for development purposes, but you would be better served by using Dancer2::Template::TemplateToolkit or one of the many alternatives available on CPAN to power an application with Dancer2 in production environment.

"Dancer2::Template::Simple" is written in pure Perl and has no C bindings to accelerate the template processing.

METHODS

render($template, \%tokens)

Renders the template. The first arg is a filename for the template file or a reference to a string that contains the template. The second arg is a hashref for the tokens that you wish to pass to Template::Toolkit for rendering.

SYNTAX

A template written for "Dancer2::Template::Simple" should be working just fine with Dancer2::Template::TemplateToolkit. The opposite is not true though.

variables

To interpolate a variable in the template, use the following syntax:

    <% var1 %>

If var1 exists in the tokens hash given, its value will be written there.
