NAME

Text::Hogan - A mustache templating engine statement-for-statement cloned from hogan.js

DESCRIPTION

Text::Hogan is a statement-for-statement rewrite of hogan.js in Perl.

It is a mustache templating engine which supports pre-compilation of your templates into pure Perl code, which then renders very quickly.

It passes the full mustache spec.

SYNOPSIS

use Text::Hogan::Compiler;

my $text = "Hello, {{name}}!";

my $compiler = Text::Hogan::Compiler->new;
my $template = $compiler->compile($text);

say $template->render({ name => "Alex" });

See Text::Hogan::Compiler and Text::Hogan::Template for more details.

TEMPLATE FORMAT

The template format is documented in mustache(5).

SEE ALSO

hogan.js

hogan.js is the original library that Text::Hogan is based on. It was written and is maintained by Twitter. It runs on Node.js and pre-compiles templates to pure JavaScript.

Text::Caml

Text::Caml supports searching for partials by file name, by default .caml but that can be configured.

Template::Mustache

Template::Mustache is used by Dancer::Template::Mustache and Dancer2::Template::Mustache. It supports compile once, render many times, but does not allow dumping the compiled form to disk.

Mustache::Simple

Mustache::Simple largely supports the Mustache spec, but skips the whitespace and decimal tests (its behaviour with decimals is the same as Text::Hogan with 'numeric_string_as_string' option enabled.) It supports passing objects with getters to the context hash, so that {{name}} can be rendered from $object->name if $object->can('name') returns true.
