Extemplate is a small wrapper package around html/template to allow for easy file-based template inheritance.
File: templates/parent.tmpl
<html>
<head>
<title>{{ block "title" }}Default title{{ end }}</title>
</head>
<body>
{{ block "content" }}Default content{{ end }}
</body>
</html>
File: templates/child.tmpl
{{ extends "parent.tmpl" }}
{{ define "title" }}Child title{{ end }}
{{ define "content" }}Hello world!{{ end }}
File: main.go
xt := extemplate.New()
xt.ParseDir("templates/", []string{".tmpl"})
_ = xt.ExecuteTemplate(os.Stdout, "child.tmpl", "no data needed")
// Output: <html>.... Hello world! ....</html>
Extemplate recursively walks all files in the given directory and will parse the files matching the given extensions as a template. Templates are named by path and filename, relative to the root directory.
For example, calling ParseDir("templates/", []string{".tmpl"})
on the following directory structure:
templates/
|__ admin/
| |__ index.tmpl
| |__ edit.tmpl
|__ index.tmpl
Will result in the following templates:
admin/index.tmpl
admin/edit.tmpl
index.tmpl
