Harfang extension - View
This extension is used to facilitate the usage of hierarchical views with Haxe's provided template system.
Although this utility bears Harfang's name, it can be used outside of it.
Installing
The library can either be obtained by source on Github or by using Haxelib:
haxelib install Harfang-ext-viewUsage
Suppose you have two template resources named child.html and parent.html , referenced in resources as child and parent. You want the child template to be rendered as part of the parent template. This is how you would do it.
Contents of parent.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head><title>Parent template</title></head>
<body>
::__child_template::
</body>
</html>Contents of child.html
<p>Hello world!</p>Sample Haxe code to build the view
package hello;
import harfang.ext.view.View;
class World {
public function render() : String {
var parentView : View = new View("parent");
var childView : View = new View("child", parentView);
return childView.render();
}
}Calling the render method on childView would produce the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head><title>Parent template</title></head>
<body>
<p>Hello world!</p>
</body>
</html>
