NAME

Posy::Plugin::TextTemplate - Posy plugin for interpolating with Text::Template

VERSION

This describes version 0.05 of Posy::Plugin::TextTemplate.

SYNOPSIS

@plugins = qw(Posy::Core Posy::Plugin::TextTemplate);

DESCRIPTION

This overrides Posy's simple interpolate() method, by using the Text::Template module. This is not compatible with core Posy style interpolation.

Note that, if you want access to any of posy's methods inside a template, the Posy object should be available through the variable "$Posy".

Configuration

This expects configuration settings in the $self->{config} hash, which, in the default Posy setup, can be defined in the main "config" file in the data directory.

tt_recurse_into_entry

Do you want me to recursively interpolate into the entry $title and $body? Consider carefully before turning this on, since if anyone other than you has the ability to post stories, there is a chance of foolishness or malice, exposing variables and calling actions/subroutines you might not want called. (0 = No, 1 = Yes)

tt_left_delim tt_right_delim

The delimiters to use for Text::Template; for the sake of speed, it is best not to use the original '{' '}' delimiters. (default: tt_left_delim='[==', tt_right_delim='==]')

OBJECT METHODS

Documentation for developers and those wishing to write plugins.

init

Do some initialization; make sure that default config values are set.

Helper Methods

Methods which can be called from within other methods.

set_vars

my %vars = $self->set_vars(\%flow_state);
my %vars = $self->set_vars(\%flow_state, \%current_entry, \%entry_state);

Sets variable hashes to be used in interpolation of templates.

This can be called from a flow action or as an entry action, and will use the given state hashes accordingly.

interpolate

$content = $self->interpolate($chunk, $template, \%vars);

Interpolate the contents of the vars hash with the template and return the result. (This is passed the chunk name just in case one wishes to do something different depending on what chunk type it is.)

REQUIRES

Text::Template

Test::More
