NAME

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

VERSION

version 0.205002

SYNOPSIS

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

    template: simple

DESCRIPTION

This template engine is provided as a default one for the Dancer2 micro framework.

This template engine should be fine for development purposes but is not a powerful one, it's written in pure Perl and has no C bindings to accelerate the template processing.

If you want to power an application with Dancer2 in production environment, it's strongly advised to switch to Dancer2::Template::TemplateToolkit.

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.
