go-templates

I’m using AngularJS as the front-end JS library, with Go templates within Revel framework to to generate the markup on the back-end. But both Go and Angular use {{ and }} for delimiters in their templates. How can I escape them in Go to pass them to AngularJS? I don't know how to escape it, but you could choose a different delimiter instead using Delims : func (t *Template) Delims(left, right string) *Template According to the mailing list , this is probably the best option. The argument was that if you escape it, your templates will be hard to read, so it would probably be better anyway to

Within a template, how can I achieve this? {{$var := template "my-template"}} I just get "unexpected <template> in operand" . There is no "builtin" action for getting the result of a template execution, but you may do it by registering a function which does that. You can register functions with the Template.Funcs() function, you may execute a named template with Template.ExecuteTemplate() and you may use a bytes.Buffer as the target (direct template execution result into a buffer). Here is a complete example: var t *template.Template func execTempl(name string) (string, error) { buf := &bytes

I have a Golang array I'm passing to my html file on the front end. I know that '{{ index .Array 0}}' works and pulls the first element from the array. But I want to do a Javascript for-loop and print every element in the array like so <script type="text/javascript"> function loop() { html = "" for(var i = 0; i<5; i++) { html += "{{ index .Array " + i + "}}"; } } But this doesn't work. Something about separating the go array index string, HTML/Javascript doesn't like it and it won't load. It's a syntactical error that I just can't pin down. Any ideas? You need to understand something: Template

I'm currently working in Go. I created a web server on my local machine. I followed the instruction on this page Rendering CSS in a Go Web Application but I'm still getting the 404 error that the program can't seem to find where my css file is. My directory is as follows. In src folder contains css/somefilename.css , src also contains server/server.go . The code inside my server.go file is as follows. http.Handle("/css/", http.StripPrefix("/css/", http.FileServer(http.Dir("css")))) When I go to localhost:8080/css/ I get 404 page not found. I'm also using templates to render the html code. The

I'm trying to use a variable declared outside a Go template range loop to see if the previous post occurred on the same day as the current post. Here's a simplified example. Where .Posts is an array of post structs that each have a .Content and a .Date . {{ $prevDate := "" }} {{ range $post := .Posts }} {{ if ne $prevDate $post.Date }} <div class="post-date">Posts dated: {{ $post.Date }}</div> {{ end }} <div class="post-content">{{ $post.Content }}</div> {{ $prevDate := $post.Date }} {{ end }} The problem is that $prevDate seems to be reset to "" at the start of each iteration of the loop. Can

In the html/template (and text/template ) packages, template.New has the following signature: func New(name string) *Template What exactly is the name used for? I've scanned the docs (and a bit of source), but to no avail. I just instantiate all of my templates with an empty string and it doesn't seem to make a difference. Why should I bother with a name? Even for naming templates, the two seem equivalent: template.Must(template.New("").Parse(`{{ define "body" }}Body{{ end }}`)) template.Must(template.New("body").Parse(`Body`)) https://play.golang.org/p/wKzCHdLf2S The name of the template

I have a Golang template, defined like this {{- define "test" -}} {{- printf "%s" .Name | trunc 24 -}} {{- end -}} Then I use it in one of my files: {{ template "test" . }} What does the dot mean after "test"? Golang template docs say: {{template "name" pipeline}} The template with the specified name is executed with dot set to the value of the pipeline. But I am not sure what pipeline is. Reading documentation gave no results, could anyone explain once again? Also, why do we have to start values beginning with dot? E.g. {{ - printf "%s" .Name | trunc 24 -}} . Is it also a kind of pipeline?
