=head1 NAME
HTML::Template::Expr - HTML::Template extension adding expression support
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use HTML::Template::Expr;
my $template = HTML::Template::Expr->new(filename => 'foo.tmpl');
$template->param(banana_count => 10);
print $template->output();
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides an extension to HTML::Template which allows
expressions in the template syntax. This is purely an addition - all
the normal HTML::Template options, syntax and behaviors will still
work. See L<HTML::Template> for details.
Expression support includes comparisons, math operations, string
operations and a mechanism to allow you add your own functions at
runtime. The basic syntax is:
<TMPL_IF EXPR="banana_count > 10">
I've got a lot of bananas.
</TMPL_IF>
This will output "I've got a lot of bananas" if you call:
$template->param(banana_count => 100);
In your script. <TMPL_VAR>s also work with expressions:
I'd like to have <TMPL_VAR EXPR="banana_count * 2"> bananas.
This will output "I'd like to have 200 bananas." with the same param()
call as above.
=head1 MOTIVATION
Some of you may wonder if I've been replaced by a pod person. Just
for the record, I still think this sort of thing should be avoided.
However, I realize that there are some situations where allowing the
template author some programatic leeway can be invaluable.
If you don't like it, don't use this module. Keep using plain ol'
HTML::Template - I know I will! However, if you find yourself needing
a little programming in your template, for whatever reason, then this
module may just save you from HTML::Mason.
=head1 BASIC SYNTAX
Variables are unquoted alphanumeric strings with the same restrictions
as variable names in HTML::Template. Their values are set through
param(), just like normal HTML::Template variables. For example,
these two lines are equivalent:
<TMPL_VAR EXPR="foo">
<TMPL_VAR NAME="foo">
Numbers are unquoted strings of numbers and may have a single "." to
indicate a floating point number. For example:
<TMPL_VAR EXPR="10 + 20.5">
String constants must be enclosed in quotes, single or double. For example:
<TMPL_VAR EXPR="sprintf('%d', foo)">
You can string together operators to produce complex booleans:
<TMPL_IF EXPR="(foo || bar || baz || (bif && bing) || (bananas > 10))">
I'm in a complex situation.
</TMPL_IF>
The parser is pretty simple, so you may need to use parenthesis to get
the desired precedence.
=head1 COMPARISON
Here's a list of supported comparison operators:
=over 4
=item * Numeric Comparisons
=over 4
=item * E<lt>
=item * E<gt>
=item * ==
=item * !=
=item * E<gt>=
=item * E<lt>=
=item * E<lt>=E<gt>
=back 4
=item * String Comparisons
=over 4
=item * gt
=item * lt
=item * eq
=item * ne
=item * ge
=item * le
=item * cmp
=back 4
=back 4
=head1 MATHEMATICS
The basic operators are supported:
=over 4
=item * +
=item * -
=item * *
=item * /
=item * %
=back 4
There are also some mathy functions. See the FUNCTIONS section below.
=head1 LOGIC
Boolean logic is available:
=over 4
=item * && (synonym: and)
=item * || (synonym: or)
=back 4
=head1 FUNCTIONS
The following functions are available to be used in expressions. See
perldoc perlfunc for details.
=over 4
=item * sprintf
=item * substr (2 and 3 arg versions only)
=item * lc
=item * lcfirst
=item * uc
=item * ucfirst
=item * length
=item * defined
=item * abs
=item * atan2
=item * cos
=item * exp
=item * hex
=item * int
=item * log
=item * oct
=item * rand
=item * sin
=item * sqrt
=item * srand
=back 4
All functions must be called using full parenthesis. For example,
this is a syntax error:
<TMPL_IF expr="defined foo">
But this is good:
<TMPL_IF expr="defined(foo)">
=head1 DEFINING NEW FUNCTIONS
To define a new function, pass a C<functions> option to new:
$t = HTML::Template::Expr->new(filename => 'foo.tmpl',
functions =>
{ func_name => \&func_handler });
Or, you can use C<register_function> class method to register
the function globally:
HTML::Template::Expr->register_function(func_name => \&func_handler);
You provide a subroutine reference that will be called during output.
It will recieve as arguments the parameters specified in the template.
For example, here's a function that checks if a directory exists:
sub directory_exists {
my $dir_name = shift;
return 1 if -d $dir_name;
return 0;
}
If you call HTML::Template::Expr->new() with a C<functions> arg:
$t = HTML::Template::Expr->new(filename => 'foo.tmpl',
functions => {
directory_exists => \&directory_exists
});
Then you can use it in your template:
<tmpl_if expr="directory_exists('/home/sam')">
This can be abused in ways that make my teeth hurt.
=head1 MOD_PERL TIP
C<register_function> class method can be called in mod_perl's
startup.pl to define widely used common functions to
HTML::Template::Expr. Add something like this to your startup.pl:
use HTML::Template::Expr;
HTML::Template::Expr->register_function(foozicate => sub { ... });
HTML::Template::Expr->register_function(barify => sub { ... });
HTML::Template::Expr->register_function(baznate => sub { ... });
You might also want to pre-compile some commonly used templates and
cache them. See L<HTML::Template>'s FAQ for instructions.
=head1 CAVEATS
Currently the module forces the HTML::Template global_vars option to
be set. This will hopefully go away in a future version, so if you
need global_vars in your templates then you should set it explicitely.
The module won't work with HTML::Template's file_cache or shared_cache
modes, but normal memory caching should work. I hope to address this
is a future version.
The module is inefficient, both in parsing and evaluation. I'll be
working on this for future versions and patches are always welcome.
=head1 BUGS
I am aware of no bugs - if you find one, join the mailing list and
tell us about it. You can join the HTML::Template mailing-list by
visiting:
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/html-template-users
Of course, you can still email me directly (sam@tregar.com) with bugs,
but I reserve the right to forward bug reports to the mailing list.
When submitting bug reports, be sure to include full details,
including the VERSION of the module, a test script and a test template
demonstrating the problem!
