That's a nice, manly {{style}} mustache you have there!
DESCRIPTION
Wrapper for Text::Handlebars, the Perl implementation of the Handlebars
templating system.
Configuration
The arguments passed to the 'handlebars' engine are given directly to
the Text::Handlebars constructor, with the exception of helper_modules
(see below for details).
Calls to 'template()'
When calling template, one can use a filename as usual, or can pass a
string reference, which will treated as the template itself.
get '/file' => sub {
# look for the file views/my_template.hbs
template 'my_template', {
name => 'Bob',
};
};
get '/string' => sub {
# provide the template directly
template \'hello there {{name}}', {
name => 'Bob',
};
};
The default extension for Handlebars templates is 'hbs'.
Helper Functions
Handlebars helper functions can be defined in modules, which are passed
via helper_modules in the configuration. See
Dancer::Template::Handlebars::Helpers for more details on how to
register the functions themselves.
Layouts
Layouts are supported. The content of the inner template will be
available via the 'content' variable.
Example of a perfectly valid, if slightly boring, layout:
<html>
<body>
{{ content }}
</body>
</html>
