Rust-DTL compiles Django Template Language.

This project is inspired by ideas: https://github.com/erlydtl/erlydtl/

Example

An Django template is a text file (e.g.: a HTML or CSS file) containing variables to control the runtime template content, tags to control the runtime template logic and comments, which get filtered out.

views/welcome.html
{% extends "layouts/main.html" %}
{% block title %}Welcome Page{% endblock %}
{% block content %}replacing the base content - variable: {{ test_var }} after variable {% endblock %}
views/layouts/main.html
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
    <title>MySite - {% block title %}{% endblock %}</title>								 
  </head>
  <body>
    {# TODO: add more text! #}
    <h1>{% block head %}Where my head?!{% endblock %}</h1>
    <p>Hello, {{username}}!</p>
    <p>{% block content %}Some text...{% endblock %}</p>
  </body>
</html>
main.rs
extern crate dtl;

use std::path::Path;
use std::error::Error;
use dtl::{Context, Template};

fn main() {
    let mut ctx = Context::new();
    ctx.set("username", Box::new("Ivan Ivanov".to_string()));
    ctx.set("test_var", Box::new("test-barstring".to_string()));
    let mut tpl = Template::new(Path::new("welcome.html"), Path::new("examples/views/"));
    match tpl.compile() {
        Ok(_) => {},
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e),
    };
    println!("{}", tpl.render(&mut ctx));
}
output
