Ace has predefined list of tag names to NOT be closed. It's handy to have an option to provide the list. If I'm producing XML, I'd have it empty.

Code changes notes:

• The list is kept in a map[string]struct{} as the size of struct{} is zero.
• Initializing func makes a copy of defaultNoCloseTagNames for opts.NoCloseTagNames, otherwise plain assignment would create a reference to the default (as it is a map) and it could be modified outside ace.

I also took the opportunity to make initializeOptions public. It becomes complex to re-do what the func does in non-ace code when it passes non-nil *ace.Options to ace.Load etc.

How to set variable? For example, if I want to set a title variable from a child template to be used in a parent template, how can I do that? I remember with Gold it was quite easy because of the optional blocks.

meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"
meta name=viewport content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0"

When an attribute has an equals sign in its value, ace seems to be breaking. Is there something I need to do?

I'm compiling ace templates for React's jsx(1) to transform html blocks into React classes. Being JavaScript code and all, the "class" attribute becomes a keyword and must be written as "className". That's an explicit requirement of React.

This shouldn't be an option in ace, I'll be fine with the attributeNameClass redeclared as a var and made public. ace.AttributeNameClass = "className" in my code would do the trick.

First of all, thanks a lot for this package, as someone who really likes Jade I totally appreciate this project.

But the current API is over complicated. A similar api to the original http/template would be great, or at least something with the similar level of abstraction.

If I want to compile a template, I just want.

ace.Compile([]byte, map[string][]byte) *html.Template

And I would be happy.

And when working with Go templates, something like this would be ideal.

ace.Template(*template.Template, string. []byte)

And I would be happy if you parsed/compiled my []byte and stick it in the template.Temlate under the name supplied by string.

Of course, the map[string][]bytes holds the includes.

Hi,

I do not know if this is an issue but I notice when I am using tabspaces, the rendering would break while for whitespaces it doesnt. When using tabs with one of the examples, it outputs

< head></ head>< meta charset="utf-8"></ meta>< title>HTML Tags</ title>< body></ body>< header></ header>< h1>HTML Tags</ h1>< section id="main-section" class="class1 class2 class3"></ section>< id="container"></ >< class="wrapper"></ >< div>Single text line can follow the tag name.</ div>< p> </ p>< This>is a block text.</ This>< BR>tags are inserted automatically.</ BR>< a href="https://github.com">Go to GitHub</ a>< input type="checkbox" checked></ input>< footer></ footer>< script> </ script>< var>msg = 'Hello Ace';</ var>< alert(msg);></ alert(msg);>

with the html itself looking like

</ p>< This>is a block text.</ This>< BR>tags are inserted automatically.</ BR>< a href="https://github.com">Go to GitHub</ a>< input type="checkbox" checked></ input>< footer></ footer>< script> </ script>< var>msg = 'Hello Ace';</ var>< alert(msg);></ alert(msg);>

(Sorry for the paste like this, pastebin and hastebin been acting up for me this current hour)

Hello,

Would it be possible to release a new tag for this library? Ace API has evolved significantly since tag 0.0.4 in 2014.

To give you more context, we'd like to package this library for Fedora. However, as the static site generator Hugo depends on commit ea038f4 of ace (cf. https://github.com/spf13/hugo/blob/ea165bf/vendor/vendor.json#L328), we'd like to package a recent release of the library. Specifically, Hugo uses ace.CompileResultWithTemplate which is not available in the latest tag 0.0.4.

Thank you!

I'm ranging over a slice but I want to enable some functions if the object is accessible by the currently logged in user (just visually).

<% range .Projects %>
    ...
    <% if eq .CurrentUser.Id .User.Id %>
       ...
    <% end %>
<% end %>

This gives me this error:

template: views/base:views/application/index:1:436: executing "views/application/index::main" at <.CurrentUser.Id>: CurrentUser is not a field of struct type models.Project

Question: How do I refence a variable that is outside of the range scope? Or how could I implement the desired behaviour?

HTML attributes are backed by a Go map, and since Go 1 the iteration order has been random.

This is not a problem for the browsers, but is a problem when using changed content as a way of detecting which files to deploy to a server.

This commit fixes that by ordering by attribute key.

Fixes #37

I'm writing an application using ace, and it would be great if I could load a template by passing in bytes directly instead of loading a file. (I have some files which contain front matter, so I only want ace to compile the part after the front matter).

Currently, I can almost do what I want to do by using the Asset option. Here's my code:

main.go:

// ...
srcBytes := []byte(`= content main
  h1 hello`)
tpl, err := ace.Load("base", "", &ace.Options{
    Asset: func(name string) ([]byte, error) {
        return srcBytes, nil
    },
})
// ...

base.ace:

= doctype html
html lang=en
  head
    = include _includes/head .
  body
    #container
      = yield main

The problem is that ace ignores base.ace and instead tries to render the bytes directly. Since = content main has no corresponding = yield main, what I get is a blank page. What I want is the bytes to be rendered as an inner template of base.ace, so the resulting html should be this:

<doctype html>
<html>
    <head>
        <!-- stuff from _includes/head here -->
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="container">
            <h1>Hello</h1>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

I'm working on a pull request which will accomplish just that. Doesn't look too hard.

What is the correct way to add stylesheet links to the head tag using ace? So far I've tried adding the following the the getting started example after title:

link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/style.css"

...

link rel="stylesheet", href="assets/css/style.css"

...

link(rel="stylesheet", href="assets/css/style.css")

All yield: PANIC: the indent is invalid [file: views/base.ace][line: 7]

I would like to do something like this:

select name="a"
  option value="alice" selected={{.IsAlice}} Alice
  option value="bob" selected={{.IsBob}} Bob

Is it possible?

In Haml, Slim, Slang I'm used to the following.

- if name.size > 10
  | You have a long name.
- else
  | You're name is average.

Is there anyway to achieve something similar with Ace?

I am currently trying to include an underscore template using ace. I need to give 1. an id to the script and it should not be escaped...

This is the template:

<script type="text/template" id="result-row">
    {% _.each(results, function(result,key,arr) { %}
        <tr onclick="getBook( {%= result.id %} )">
            <td>{%= result.id %}</td>
            <td>{%= result.title %}</td>
            <td>{%= result.author%}</td>
            <td>{%= result.year%}</td>
        </tr>
    {% }); %}
</script>

The script tag

If I use the script tag, I can assign a id attribute, like this:

script id="result-row" type="text/javascript"

But this results in the "<" and ">" beeing escaped and tags added like this:

<script id="result-row" type="text/javascript"><{%>_.each(results, function(result,key,arr) { %}<<tr onclick=""getBook( {%= result.id %} )">"><<td>{%=>result.id %}</td></<td>{%=><<td>{%=>result.title %}</td></<td>{%=><<td>{%=>result.author%}</td></<td>{%=><<td>{%=>result.year%}</td></<td>{%=></<tr><</tr>></</tr>></{%><{%>}); %}</{%></script>

Using the = javascript syntax

In this case all is fine. Exept: I am not able to assign an id to the javascript element. Beeig able to add attributes to = javascript would actually fix this

Would it be possible to add support for colons in attribute names, for use with JavaScript frameworks like Vue.js?

E.g. v-bind:items="something"

At present printed inside the tag and not as an attribute.
