gtf - a useful set of Golang Template Functions

gtf is a useful set of Golang Template Functions. The goal of this project is implementing all built-in template filters of Django & Jinja2.

Basic usages

Method 1 : Uses gtf.New

gtf.New is a wrapper function of template.New. It automatically adds the gtf functions to the template's function map and returns template.Template.

package main

import (
	"net/http"
	"github.com/leekchan/gtf"
)

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		filesize := 554832114
		tpl, _ := gtf.New("test").Parse("{{ . | filesizeformat }}")
		tpl.Execute(w, filesize)
	})
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

Method 2 : Adds gtf functions to the existing template.

You can also add the gtf functions to the existing template(html/template package). Just call ".Funcs(gtf.GtfFuncMap)".

package main

import (
	"net/http"
	"html/template"
	
	"github.com/leekchan/gtf"
)

func main() {
    http.HandleFunc("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
		filesize := 554832114
		tpl, _ := template.New("test").Funcs(gtf.GtfFuncMap).Parse("{{ . | filesizeformat }}")
		tpl.Execute(w, filesize)
	})
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}

When you use the "text/template" package, call ".Funcs(gtf.GtfTextFuncMap)".

package main

import (
	"os"
	"text/template"
	
	"github.com/leekchan/gtf"
)

func main() {
	filesize := 554832114
	tpl, _ := template.New("test").Funcs(gtf.GtfTextFuncMap).Parse("{{ . | filesizeformat }}")
	tpl.Execute(os.Stdout, filesize)
}

Integration

You can use gtf with any web frameworks (revel, beego, martini, gin, etc) which use the Golang's built-in html/template package.

Injection

You can inject gtf functions into your webframework's original FuncMap by calling "gtf.Inject" / "gtf.ForceInject" / "gtf.InjectWithPrefix".

gtf.Inject

gtf.Inject injects gtf functions into the passed FuncMap. It does not overwrite the original function which have same name as a gtf function.

Inject(originalFuncMap)

gtf.ForceInject

gtf.ForceInject injects gtf functions into the passed FuncMap. It overwrites the original function which have same name as a gtf function.

ForceInject(originalFuncMap)

gtf.InjectWithPrefix

gtf.Inject injects gtf functions into the passed FuncMap. It prefixes the gtf functions with the specified prefix. If there are many function which have same names as the gtf functions, you can use this function to prefix the gtf functions.

InjectWithPrefix(originalFuncMap, "gtf_") // prefix : gtf_

Revel integration

Calling "gtf.Inject(revel.TemplateFuncs)" injects gtf functions into revel.TemplateFuncs. Just add this one line in init() of init.go, and use gtf functions in your templates! :)

// init.go

package app

import "github.com/revel/revel"
import "github.com/leekchan/gtf"

func init() {
    gtf.Inject(revel.TemplateFuncs)
}

Beego integration

Add these three lines before "beego.Run()" in your main() function. This code snippet will inject gtf functions into beego's FuncMap.

for k, v := range gtf.GtfFuncMap {
    beego.AddFuncMap(k, v)
}

Full example:

package main

import (
    "github.com/astaxie/beego"
    "github.com/beego/i18n"

    "github.com/beego/samples/WebIM/controllers"
    
    "github.com/leekchan/gtf"
)

const (
    APP_VER = "0.1.1.0227"
)

func main() {
    beego.Info(beego.AppName, APP_VER)

    // Register routers.
    beego.Router("/", &controllers.AppController{})
    // Indicate AppController.Join method to handle POST requests.
    beego.Router("/join", &controllers.AppController{}, "post:Join")

    // Long polling.
    beego.Router("/lp", &controllers.LongPollingController{}, "get:Join")
    beego.Router("/lp/post", &controllers.LongPollingController{})
    beego.Router("/lp/fetch", &controllers.LongPollingController{}, "get:Fetch")

    // WebSocket.
    beego.Router("/ws", &controllers.WebSocketController{})
    beego.Router("/ws/join", &controllers.WebSocketController{}, "get:Join")

    // Register template functions.
    beego.AddFuncMap("i18n", i18n.Tr)
    
    // Register gtf functions.
    for k, v := range gtf.GtfFuncMap {
        beego.AddFuncMap(k, v)
    }

    beego.Run()
}

Other web frameworks (TODO)

I will add the detailed integration guides for other web frameworks soon!

Safety

All gtf functions have their own recovery logics. The basic behavior of the recovery logic is silently swallowing all unexpected panics. All gtf functions would not make any panics in runtime. (Production Ready!)

If a panic occurs inside a gtf function, the function will silently swallow the panic and return "" (empty string). If you meet any unexpected empty output, please make an issue! :)

Goal

The first goal is implementing all built-in template filters of Django & Jinja2.

• Django | Built-in filter reference
• Jinja2 | List of Builtin Filters

The final goal is building a ultimate set which contains hundreds of useful template functions.

Functions

func ForceInject

func ForceInject(funcs map[string]interface{})

gtf.ForceInject injects gtf functions into the passed FuncMap. It overwrites the original function which have same name as a gtf function.

func Inject

func Inject(funcs map[string]interface{})

gtf.Inject injects gtf functions into the passed FuncMap. It does not overwrite the original function which have same name as a gtf function.

func InjectWithPrefix

func InjectWithPrefix(funcs map[string]interface{}, prefix string)

gtf.Inject injects gtf functions into the passed FuncMap. It prefixes the gtf functions with the specified prefix. If there are many function which have same names as the gtf functions, you can use this function to prefix the gtf functions.

func New

func New(name string) *htmlTemplate.Template

gtf.New is a wrapper function of template.New(https://golang.org/pkg/html/template/#New). It automatically adds the gtf functions to the template's function map and returns template.Template(http://golang.org/pkg/html/template/#Template).
