jinja_module

The jinja module uses the Python jinja templating package to render arbitrary strings using record data.

Typically, this is the best choice for rendering html, emails, or anything that involves looping along with interpolation.

Example

["jinja"] USE-MODULES

: MY-DATA   [
    ["letters" ["alpha" "beta" "gamma"]]
] REC;

: MY-TEMPLATE "
    <ul>
        {% for letter in letters %}
            <li>{{ letter }}</li>
        {% endfor %}
    </ul>
";

MY-TEMPLATE  MY-DATA jira.RENDER

Reference

RENDER

(template record -- string) Given a jinja template and a Forthic record, renders a string using the jinja engine.

NOTE: The record must have fields that are valid Python variable names since these are used within the jinja template.
