Gotemplate
Flamingo comes with a wrapped html/template as simple default template engine.
Refer to golang.org/pkg/html/template/ for the basic documentation
Structured templating
Template directory
This module allows to set up a deeply nested directory structure with template (html) files.
These files can be referenced from a controller by just using the path without .html.
For example, to render deep/nested/index.html in your controller, just call
return controller.responder.Render("deep/nested/index")
Layout templates
In addition, a set of base layout templates can be defined in a separate directory. These layout templates can be included into all rendered templates.
If you want to define a site template, just call different sub templates inside like
{{template "content" .}}
In your rendered template, you can call the layout template and define all needed blocks:
{{template "pages/site.html" .}}
{{define "content"}}
<h1>The site content</h1>
{{end}}
The layout templates can also be used to define common "snippets" which can be used in every rendered template, for example:
{{range $i, $p := .Products}}
{{if gt $i 0}}
<hr/>
{{end}}
<div class="row">
{{template "blocks/product.html" $p}}
</div>
{{end}}
