Template - Front-end module to the Template Toolkit
use Template;
# some useful options (see below for full list) my $config = { INCLUDE_PATH => '/search/path', # or list ref INTERPOLATE => 1, # expand "$var" in plain text POST_CHOMP => 1, # cleanup whitespace PRE_PROCESS => 'header', # prefix each template EVAL_PERL => 1, # evaluate Perl code blocks };
# create Template object my $template = Template->new($config);
# define template variables for replacement my $vars = { var1 => $value, var2 => \%hash, var3 => \@list, var4 => \&code, var5 => $object, };
# specify input filename, or file handle, text reference, etc. my $input = 'myfile.html';
# process input template, substituting variables $template->process($input, $vars) || die $template->error();
my $tt = Template->new({ INCLUDE_PATH => '/usr/local/templates', EVAL_PERL => 1, }) || die $Template::ERROR, "\n";
A reference to a new Template object is returned, or undef on error. In the latter case, the error message can be retrieved by calling error() as a class method (e.g. "Template->error()") or by examining the $ERROR package variable directly (e.g. $Template::ERROR).
my $tt = Template->new(\%config) || die Template->error(), "\n";
my $tt = Template->new(\%config) || die $Template::ERROR, "\n";
For convenience, configuration items may also be specified as a list of items instead of a hash array reference. These are automatically folded into a hash array by the constructor.
my $tt = Template->new(INCLUDE_PATH => '/tmp', POST_CHOMP => 1) || die $Template::ERROR, "\n";
$text = "[% INCLUDE header %]\nHello world!\n[% INCLUDE footer %]";
# filename $tt->process('welcome.tt2') || die $tt->error(), "\n";
# text reference $tt->process(\$text) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
# GLOB $tt->process(\*DATA) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
__END__ [% INCLUDE header %] This is a template defined in the __END__ section which is accessible via the DATA "file handle". [% INCLUDE footer %]
By default, the processed template output is printed to STDOUT. The process() method then returns 1 to indicate success. A third parameter may be passed to the process() method to specify a different output location. This value may be one of: a plain string indicating a filename which will be opened (relative to OUTPUT_PATH, if defined) and the output written to; a file GLOB opened ready for output; a reference to a scalar (e.g. a text string) to which output/error is appended; a reference to a subroutine which is called, passing the output as a parameter; or any object reference which implements a 'print' method (e.g. IO::Handle, Apache::Request, etc.) which will be called, passing the generated output as a parameter.
Examples:
# output filename $tt->process('welcome.tt2', $vars, 'welcome.html') || die $tt->error(), "\n";
# reference to output subroutine sub myout { my $output = shift; ... } $tt->process('welcome.tt2', $vars, \&myout) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
# reference to output text string my $output = ''; $tt->process('welcome.tt2', $vars, \$output) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
print "output: $output\n";
In an Apache/mod_perl handler:
sub handler { my $req = shift;
...
# direct output to Apache::Request via $req->print($output) $tt->process($file, $vars, $req) || do { $req->log_reason($tt->error()); return SERVER_ERROR; };
return OK; }
After the optional third output argument can come an optional reference to a hash or a list of (name, value) pairs providing further options for the output. The only option currently supported is ``binmode'' which, when set to any true value will ensure that files created (but not any existing file handles passed) will be set to binary mode.
# either: hash reference of options $tt->process($infile, $vars, $outfile, { binmode => 1 }) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
# or: list of name, value pairs $tt->process($infile, $vars, $outfile, binmode => 1) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
The OUTPUT configuration item can be used to specify a default output location other than \*STDOUT. The OUTPUT_PATH specifies a directory which should be prefixed to all output locations specified as filenames.
my $tt = Template->new({ OUTPUT => sub { ... }, # default OUTPUT_PATH => '/tmp', ... }) || die Template->error(), "\n";
# use default OUTPUT (sub is called) $tt->process('welcome.tt2', $vars) || die $tt->error(), "\n";
# write file to '/tmp/welcome.html' $tt->process('welcome.tt2', $vars, 'welcome.html') || die $tt->error(), "\n";
The process() method returns 1 on success or undef on error. The error message generated in the latter case can be retrieved by calling the error() method. See also ``CONFIGURATION SUMMARY'' which describes how error handling may be further customised.
my $tt = Template->new() || die Template->error(), "\n";
my $tt = Template->new() || die $Template::ERROR, "\n";
When called as an object method, it returns the value of the internal _ERROR variable, as set by an error condition in a previous call to process().
$tt->process('welcome.tt2') || die $tt->error(), "\n";
Errors are represented in the Template Toolkit by objects of the Template::Exception class. If the process() method returns a false value then the error() method can be called to return an object of this class. The type() and info() methods can called on the object to retrieve the error type and information string, respectively. The as_string() method can be called to return a string of the form ``$type - $info''. This method is also overloaded onto the stringification operator allowing the object reference itself to be printed to return the formatted error string.
$tt->process('somefile') || do { my $error = $tt->error(); print "error type: ", $error->type(), "\n"; print "error info: ", $error->info(), "\n"; print $error, "\n"; };
