afEfanXtra::TemplateConverters
(Service) - Contribute functions to convert files into efan templates.
Some templates, such as Slim templates, need to be pre-processed / converted to efan notation before they can be compiled. To do this, a conversion function is looked up via the file extension. If no function is found, the file is assumed to be an efan template and read in as a simple string.
For example, to use Slim templates add the following to your AppModule
:
using afIoc using afSlim using afEfanXtra class AppModule { @Contribute { serviceType=TemplateConverters# } static Void contributeSlimTemplates(Configuration config, Slim slim) { config["slim"] = |File file -> Str| { slim.parseFromFile(file) } } }
This will convert all files with a .slim
extension to an efan template.
By default, a function is supplied that converts all files with a .fandoc
extension into HTML.
@uses Configuration of Str : |File->Str|
- file ext to func that converts the file to an efan template
- canConvert
