NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::Driver::HTMLTemplateExpr - HTML::Template::Expr
       driver to AnyTemplate

DESCRIPTION

       This is a driver for CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate, which provides the
       implementation details specific to rendering templates via the HTML::Template::Expr
       templating system.

       All "AnyTemplate" drivers are designed to be used the same way.  For general usage
       instructions, see the documentation of CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate.

EMBEDDED COMPONENT SYNTAX (HTML::Template::Expr)

   Syntax
       The HTML::Template::Expr syntax for embedding components is:

           <TMPL_VAR EXPR="CGIAPP_embed('some_run_mode', param1, param2, 'literal string3')">

       This can be overridden by the following configuration variables:

           embed_tag_name       # default 'CGIAPP_embed'

       For instance by setting the following value in your configuration file:

           embed_tag_name       '__ACME_render'

       Then the embedded component tag will look like:

           <TMPL_VAR EXPR="__ACME_render('some_run_mode')">

       The value of "embed_tag_name" must consist of numbers, letters and underscores ("_"), and
       must not begin with a number.

CONFIGURATION

       The CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::Driver::HTMLTemplateExpr driver accepts the
       following config parameters:

       embed_tag_name
           The name of the tag used for embedding components.  Defaults to "CGIAPP_embed".

       template_extension
           If "auto_add_template_extension" is true, then CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate
           will append the value of "template_extension" to "filename".  By default the
           "template_extension" is ".html".

       associate_query
           This feature is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

           If this config parameter is true, then
           CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::Driver::HTMLTemplateExpr will copy all of the
           webapp's query params into the template using HTML::Template::Expr's "associate"
           mechanism:

               my $driver = HTML::Template::Expr->new(
                   associate => $self->query,
               );

           By default "associate_query" is false.

           If you provide an "associate" config parameter of your own, that will disable the
           "associate_query" functionality.

       All other configuration parameters are passed on unchanged to HTML::Template::Expr.

   required_modules
       The "required_modules" function returns the modules required for this driver to operate.
       In this case: "HTML::Template::Expr".

DRIVER METHODS

       initialize
           Initializes the "HTMLTemplateExpr" driver.  See the docs for
           CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::Base for details.

       render_template
           Fills the HTML::Template::Expr object with "$self->param", and returns the output (as
           a string reference).

           See the docs for CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::Base for details.
