NetTemplate

Nuget

This is a fork of StringTemplate 4 for .NET to modernize it. The goal of this project is to be a superset of StringTemplate 4. That is, any template of StringTemplate 4 can be using with this library unmodified with additional features available.

Usage

The 1.X version can be drop-in replacement for StringTemplate4. Just rename namespace from Antlr4.StringTemplate to NetTemplate. Every next major version will have some small breaking changes on the code so you can slowly upgraded. The template itself will never have a breaking change (unless StringTemplate 4 introduced it), only the code that using this library.

Additional features

Expression options

The following is a list of the new expression options in additional to StringTemplate 4 expression options:

  • culture: specify the name of the culture to override the one that was specified in Template.Render() (e.g. <foo; culture="th-TH">). It can be any value that is acceptable by CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo(), even an empty string.

Breaking changes

2.0 to 3.0

  • All constructors of NetTemplate.Interpreter become internal.
  • Any exception from the template will propagation to the call site instead of raising an INTERNAL_ERROR.

1.0 to 2.0

  • culture parameter on IAttributeRenderer.ToString() will be able to override by the user.
  • IFormattable object will be honored during rendering.
  • NetTemplate.Interpreter become a sealed class.
  • AssemblyInfo has been removed.
