NAME

       Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny - Dancer2 own implementation of
       Template::Tiny

VERSION

       version 0.205002

SYNOPSIS

         my $template = Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny->new(
             TRIM => 1,
         );

         # Print the template results to STDOUT
         $template->process( <<'END_TEMPLATE', { foo => 'World' } );
         Hello [% foo %]!
         END_TEMPLATE

DESCRIPTION

       Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny is a reimplementation of a subset of the
       functionality from Template Toolkit in as few lines of code as possible.

       It is intended for use in light-usage, low-memory, or low-cpu templating situations, where
       you may need to upgrade to the full feature set in the future, or if you want the retain
       the familiarity of TT-style templates.

       For the subset of functionality it implements, it has fully-compatible template and stash
       API. All templates used with Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny should be able
       to be transparently upgraded to full Template Toolkit.

       Unlike Template Toolkit, Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny will process
       templates without a compile phase (but despite this is still quicker, owing to heavy use
       of the Perl regular expression engine.

   SUPPORTED USAGE
       By default, the "[% %]" tag style is used. You can change the start tag and end tag by
       specifying them at object creation :

         my $template = Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny->new(
             start_tag => '<%',
             end_tag => '%>,
         );

       In the rest of the documentation, "[% %]" will be used, but it can be of course your
       specified start / end tags.

       Both the "[%+ +%]" style explicit whitespace and the "[%- -%]" style explicit chomp are
       support, although the "[%+ +%]" version is unneeded in practice as
       Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny does not support default-enabled "PRE_CHOMP"
       or "POST_CHOMP".

       Variable expressions in the form "[% foo.bar.baz %]" are supported.

       Appropriate simple behaviours for "ARRAY" references, "HASH" references and objects are
       supported. "VMethods" such as [% array.length %] are not supported at this time.

       If the resulting expression is a CodeRef, it'll be evaluated.

       "IF", "ELSE" and "UNLESS" conditional blocks are supported, but only with simple "[%
       foo.bar.baz %]" conditions.

       Support for looping (or rather iteration) is available in simple "[% FOREACH item IN list
       %]" form is supported. Other loop structures are not supported. Because support for
       arbitrary or infinite looping is not available,
       Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny templates are not turing complete. This is
       intentional.

       All of the four supported control structures "IF"/"ELSE"/"UNLESS"/"FOREACH" can be nested
       to arbitrary depth.

       The treatment of "_private" hash and method keys is compatible with Template Toolkit,
       returning null or false rather than the actual content of the hash key or method.

       Anything beyond the above is currently out of scope.

NAME

       Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny - Template Toolkit reimplemented in as
       little code as possible, forked from Template::Tiny

METHODS

   new
         my $template = Dancer2::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny->new(
             TRIM => 1,
         );

       The "new" constructor is provided for compatibility with Template Toolkit.

       The only parameter it currently supports is "TRIM" (which removes leading and trailing
       whitespace from processed templates).

       Additional parameters can be provided without error, but will be ignored.

   process
         # DEPRECATED: Return template results (emits a warning)
         my $text = $template->process( \$input, $vars );

         # Print template results to STDOUT
         $template->process( \$input, $vars );

         # Generate template results into a variable
         my $output = '';
         $template->process( \$input, $vars, \$output );

       The "process" method is called to process a template.

       The first parameter is a reference to a text string containing the template text. A
       reference to a hash may be passed as the second parameter containing definitions of
       template variables.

       If a third parameter is provided, it must be a scalar reference to be populated with the
       output of the template.

       For a limited amount of time, the old deprecated interface will continue to be supported.
       If "process" is called without a third parameter, and in scalar or list contest, the
       template results will be returned to the caller.

       If "process" is called without a third parameter, and in void context, the template
       results will be "print()"ed to the currently selected file handle (probably "STDOUT") for
       compatibility with Template.
