Horrorshow
A macro-based html templating library, compatible with stable rust (currently requires rust >= 1.48).
Features
This crate will degrade gracefully when compiled without std
(disable the "std"
feature) and even without alloc
(disable the "alloc" feature).
When compiled with alloc
but without std
:
Template::write_to_io()
is not defined.- Templates may only emit errors implementing
ToString
and all such errors are immediately converted to strings.
When compiled with just core:
RenderBox
is no longer defined (no allocation).- The
Template::into_string()
andTemplate::write_to_string()
are no longer defined. The only template rendering method available isTemplate::write_to_fmt()
. - Templates may only emit static
&str
errors, and only the first is recorded.
Example:
#[macro_use]
extern crate horrorshow;
use horrorshow::prelude::*;
use horrorshow::helper::doctype;
fn main() {
let actual = format!("{}", html! {
: doctype::HTML;
html {
head {
title : "Hello world!";
}
body {
// attributes
h1(id="heading") {
// Insert escaped text
: "Hello! This is <html />"
}
p {
// Insert raw text (unescaped)
: Raw("Let's <i>count</i> to 10!")
}
ol(id="count") {
// You can embed for loops, while loops, and if statements.
@ for i in 0..10 {
li(first? = (i == 0)) {
// Format some text.
: format_args!("{}", i+1)
}
}
}
// You need semi-colons for tags without children.
br; br;
p {
// You can also embed closures.
|tmpl| {
tmpl << "Easy!";
}
}
}
}
});
