templatel

A modern templating language for Emacs-Lisp. Inspired on Jinja, templatel brings a high level language for expanding variables with conditional and loop control flow structures.

How does it look like

<h1>{{ title }}</h1>
<ul>
  {% for user in users %}
    <li><a href="{{ user.url }}">{{ user.name }}</a></li>
  {% endfor %}
</ul>

That can be rendered with the following Emacs Lisp code:

(templatel-render-file "tmpl.html.jinja"
                       '(("title" . "A nice web page")
                         ("users" . ((("url" . "https://emacs.love")
                                      ("name" . "link"))
                                     (("url" . "https://gnu.org")
                                      ("name" . "Gnu!!"))))))

The rendered code would look like this:

<h1>A nice web page</h1>
<ul>
  <li><a href="https://emacs.love">link</a></li>
  <li><a href="https://gnu.org">Gnu!!</a></li>
</ul>
