Re: How to use nested directives?

Daniel Dekany — 2012-05-22T21:27:32


This is correct so far, although <#if outFile?cotains(m.item.link)>
would be nicer.


(It is an error since ${Expression} only makes sense put directly into
static text or into a string literal. Elsewhere you can you just use
Expression as is.)


(I assume there will be something else next to the "item" key in that
map, or else that whole map could be eliminated, of course.)


Just like you did. Furthermore your above example works for me. So,
some of the items has no "link" in it or it's null. That's what the
error message means.

How to use nested directives?

Stefan Undorf — 2012-05-22T14:50:17

Hi fmpplers,

I try to generate my menus dynamically and to activate the current menu item. So I use one directive
inside another but I do not know how to do it right. The following is taken from the example below:

    <#if outFile?index_of(m.item.link) != -1>  <!-- m.item.link is undefined -->
    <#if outFile?index_of(${m.item.link}) != -1>  <!-- syntax error -->

Complete example:

    <#assign menus = [
        {"item": {"name": "Motive", "link": "motive.html"}},
        {"item": {"name": "Action", "link": "action.html"}},
    ]>
    <#if currentLanguage == "es">
        <#assign menus = [
            {"item": {"name": "Motivos", "link": "es/motive.html"}},
            {"item": {"name": "Acción", "link": "es/action.html"}},
        ]>
    </#if>
    <ul class="nav">
        <#list menus as m>
            <li <#if outFile?index_of(m.item.link) != -1>class="active"</#if>>
                <a href="${m.item.link}">${m.item.name}</a>
            </li>
        </#list> 
    </ul>

Subject: [FMPP] Parsing TDD Files

I'd like to use the TDD parsing functionality for reading properties files for my application. I've used FMPP for generating configuration files from templates, but I'd like to skip the generation stage, and use a TDD as the data source for run-time settings. Is this possible, or can I use a particular sub-library of FMPP to accomplish this?  Thanks!

Re: newbie problem

Daniel Dekany — 2010-10-28T18:21:19

I'm not sure what do you expect and what's the difference compared to
that. Some questions:

- Why would you put templates into the "data" directory?

- What's in Actions.xml? Is there any FreeMarker
  directives/interpolations in it? Or is it plain XML that you want to
  transform with the template?

- You don't use the "include" variable anywhere

Re: Freemarker with YAML Files

Daniel Dekany — 2010-08-10T07:25:00

I don't know anything concrete about this mater, but as far as I see,
some YAML libraries expose YAML as JavaBeans, in which case FreeMarker
marker can access them right now, and you don't need anything
YAML-specific.

If YAML is turned into some kind of YAML-specific nodes/entires (maybe
JvYAML does that, I don't know) instead, just like W3C DOM nodes are
wrapped, those could be too, but then someone needs to write the
wrapper first... (Yes, that was what you were looking for.)

Re: freemarker in struts2 application

Daniel Dekany — 2010-07-19T13:35:02


Note that this is the FMPP mailing-list, not the FreeMarker
mailing-list.


The above line should be just:

  <#if parameters.cssStyle == "vertical">

Does the same but cleaner and faster...

Also, the two #if could be united as

  <#if parameters.cssStyle?exists and parameters.cssStyle == "vertical">

which furthermore can be reduced to:

  <#if parameters.cssStyle!'' == "vertical">


That's a HTML question, and so it has nothing to do wit FreeMarker.
But you could use a HTML table, or div-s with fixed width and CSS
floating.

Re: How to include java code into freemarker's data model infmpp?

alebu — 2010-01-09T12:38:28

Well, I tried to specify maven classpath and it looks like maven
classpath includes my custom code, but FMPP still can not see it.
While running maven build, ant-run prints it classpath and classes I
need to have in FMPP are included. But Freemarker instance used by
FMPP can't see them. I used Freemarker's new() modifier to create an
object, like:
<#assign AA="my.functionObject.full.ClassName"?new()>
and got build error like:
     [fmpp] Task aborted: FMPP processing session failed.
     [fmpp] Caused by: freemarker.template.TemplateException:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: my.functionObject.full.ClassName
     [fmpp] Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
my.functionObject.full.ClassName

In general, I wanted to add some custom complex logic into template
environment. This time only as custom freemarker function, but if this
strategy will work, then more logic will be possible to add.
Constructing that object in beanshell also failed with

Defininion of custom ant tasks in maven-ant-run plugin is described
here: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/examples/customTasks.html
In general, configuration looks like <taskdef name="myTask"
classname="com.acme.MyTask" classpathref="maven.plugin.classpath"/>
This 'maven.plugin.classpath' is defined by maven and is plugin
classpath. Perhaps I need to play with it to get what I want. At least
it worth to try. Thanks for hint!

How did you define the fmpp task? Because it wouldn't work unless you
have put it into the "Ant classpath" somehow. Can't you add your
classes to the "Ant classpath" one the same way? (The Ant "taskdef"
element has optional "classpath" and "classpathref" attributes, also I
believe it supports nested "classpath" element too.)

I think that under Ant. Maven-ant-run plugin allows to pass maven
classpath to Ant. At least that is stated in documentation. But I
can't find how to specify any class path to FMPP it self from ant. And
that is the problem. I am thinking about possible maven FMPP plugin
but first I need to find some free time for it :(

This issue might not be FMPP-specific. Sounds like it's just about
setting up the "class path" under Maven (or maybe under Ant).

Thanks, I found this one be seeking discussion. Unfortunately, I am
not sure is it helpful, because I am running FMPP from Ant (actually
from maven using maven-ant-run plugin). So, I can't manipulate
classpath of fmpp, because I even have no installation of it, FMPP
code comes from maven repository. During the week, I will try to play
with it (now I am at work and have no access to code where I want to
apply such approach. In success I will write in this discussion.

How to include java code into freemarker's data model infmpp?

alebu — 2010-01-04T20:20:18

Hi all,
How can I specify FMPP to include some compiled java code or jar files
in the freemarker classpath? I need it because I want to use some of
the functions written with java from freemarker templates and because
FMPP instanciates freemarker instance, I can't affect a classpath it
passes to it.

Sorry, I don't understant the question. Could you be more specific?
Responsible for the generation of... what?


Unfortunatelly that's not supported by FMPP... altough FreeMarker
itself can load template from classpath, but there is no public API in
FMPP to achieve that. Worst, it has a real reason that it hasn't: FMPP
directly uses java.io.File etc. to process the source directory (which
not only consist of templates, so I couldn't use FreeMarker's loader
anyway). Next time I write a preprocessor surely I will use some kind
of virtual file-system, but when I wrote FMPP, I just didn't need
that... and now, it would be quite a work to allow loading from non-fs
sources. Unless, you just want to #import/#include those
classloader-loaded templates, becaue via "freemarkerLinks" (see on
http://fmpp.sourceforge.net/settings.html) those templates can be
outside the source root directory. Currently even "freemarkerLinks"
only support plain files, but that wouldn't be a big deal to improve.


See above... FreeMarker
