Overview

Tilt::Mapping associates file extensions with template implementations.

mapping = Tilt::Mapping.new
mapping.register(Tilt::RDocTemplate, 'rdoc')
mapping['index.rdoc'] # => Tilt::RDocTemplate
mapping.new('index.rdoc').render

You can use #register to register a template class by file extension, #registered? to see if a file extension is mapped, #[] to lookup template classes, and #new to instantiate template objects.

Mapping also supports lazy template implementations. Note that regularly registered template implementations always have preference over lazily registered template implementations. You should use #register if you depend on a specific template implementation and #register_lazy if there are multiple alternatives.

mapping = Tilt::Mapping.new
mapping.register_lazy('RDiscount::Template', 'rdiscount/template', 'md')
mapping['index.md']
# => RDiscount::Template

#register_lazy takes a class name, a filename, and a list of file extensions. When you try to lookup a template name that matches the file extension, Tilt will automatically try to require the filename and constantize the class name.

Unlike #register, there can be multiple template implementations registered lazily to the same file extension. Tilt will attempt to load the template implementations in order (registered last would be tried first), returning the first which doesn’t raise LoadError.

If all of the registered template implementations fails, Tilt will raise the exception of the first, since that was the most preferred one.

mapping = Tilt::Mapping.new
mapping.register_lazy('Bluecloth::Template', 'bluecloth/template', 'md')
mapping.register_lazy('RDiscount::Template', 'rdiscount/template', 'md')
mapping['index.md']
# => RDiscount::Template

In the previous example we say that RDiscount has a *higher priority* than BlueCloth. Tilt will first try to ‘require “rdiscount/template”`, falling back to `require “bluecloth/template”`. If none of these are successful, the first error will be raised.

Instance Method Details

#[](file) ⇒ template class Also known as: template_for

Looks up a template class based on file name and/or extension.

Examples:

mapping['views/hello.erb'] # => Tilt::ERBTemplate
mapping['hello.erb']       # => Tilt::ERBTemplate
mapping['erb']             # => Tilt::ERBTemplate

Returns:

  • (template class)

def [](file)
  _, ext = split(file)
  ext && lookup(ext)
end

#extensions_for(template_class) ⇒ Object

Finds the extensions the template class has been registered under.

Parameters:

  • template_class (template class)

  lazy_map.each do |ext, choices|

end

#new(file, line = nil, options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Instantiates a new template class based on the file.

Examples:

mapping.new('index.mt') # => instance of MyEngine::Template

Raises:

  • (RuntimeError) —

    if there is no template class registered for the file name.

  • Template.new

  else
    fail "No template engine registered for #{File.basename(file)}"
  end
end

#register(template_class, *extensions) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Registers a template implementation by file extension. There can only be one template implementation per file extension, and this method will override any existing mapping.

Examples:

mapping.register MyEngine::Template, 'mt'
mapping['index.mt'] # => MyEngine::Template

Parameters:

  • template_class
  • extensions (Array<String>) —

    List of extensions.

  if template_class.respond_to?(:to_str)
    # Support register(ext, template_class) too
    extensions, template_class = [template_class], extensions[0]
  end

  extensions.each do |ext|
    @template_map[ext.to_s] = template_class
  end
end

#register_lazy(class_name, file, *extensions) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Registers a lazy template implementation by file extension. You can have multiple lazy template implementations defined on the same file extension, in which case the template implementation defined last will be attempted loaded first.

Examples:

mapping.register_lazy 'MyEngine::Template', 'my_engine/template',  'mt'

defined?(MyEngine::Template) # => false
mapping['index.mt'] # => MyEngine::Template
defined?(MyEngine::Template) # => true

Parameters:

  • class_name (String) —

    Class name of a template class.

  • file (String) —

    Filename where the template class is defined.

  • extensions (Array<String>) —

    List of extensions.

  end

  extensions.each do |ext|
    @lazy_map[ext].unshift([class_name, file])
  end
end

#registered?(ext) ⇒ Boolean

Checks if a file extension is registered (either eagerly or lazily) in this mapping.

Examples:

mapping.registered?('erb')  # => true
mapping.registered?('nope') # => false

Parameters:

  • ext (String) —

    File extension.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

end

#templates_for(file) ⇒ Array<template class>

Looks up a list of template classes based on file name. If the file name has multiple extensions, it will return all template classes matching the extensions from the end.

Examples:

mapping.templates_for('views/index.haml.erb')
# => [Tilt::ERBTemplate, Tilt::HamlTemplate]

Returns:

  • (Array<template class>)
