Rendering a heist template returns nothing

import Data.String.Conversions

renderTemplate :: String -> (HeistState IO -> HeistState IO) -> ActionM ()
renderTemplate fileName hsBinding = do
  let emptyI = return () :: MapSyntax Text (I.Splice IO)
  let emptyC = return () :: MapSyntax Text (HeistCom.Splice IO)
  let emptyA = return () :: MapSyntax Text (AttrSplice IO)
  let spliceConfig = SpliceConfig emptyI emptyI emptyC emptyA [] (\_ -> False):: SpliceConfig IO
  heist <- lift $ Heist.initHeist (HeistConfig spliceConfig "" True)
  case heist of
    Right heist' -> do
      rendered <- lift $ I.renderTemplate (hsBinding heist') $ convertString fileName
      case (rendered) of
        Just (builder, _) -> do
          lift $ print $ toLazyByteString builder
        Nothing -> error "heist error"
    Left a -> error . convertString $ show a

I'm calling the function this way:

renderTemplate "templates/compareForm"  $ I.bindSplice "test" $ I.textSplice "abcxyz"

I'm guessing it's to do with the config. I have not thoroughly thought through the above config.

Unfortunately the above is just generating an error of "heist error" (the second last line). So my question is why? My next step would be to investigate the Heist.Interpreted.renderTemplate function.

回答1:

Finally figured this out... I needed to specify a template location...

renderTemplate :: String -> (HeistState IO -> HeistState IO) -> ActionM ()
renderTemplate fileName hsBinding = do
  let emptyI = return () :: MapSyntax Text (I.Splice IO)
  let emptyC = return () :: MapSyntax Text (HeistCom.Splice IO)
  let emptyA = return () :: MapSyntax Text (AttrSplice IO)
  let templateLocations = [Heist.loadTemplates "templates/"]
  let spliceConfig = SpliceConfig emptyI emptyI emptyC emptyA templateLocations (\_ -> False):: SpliceConfig IO
  heist <- lift $ Heist.initHeist (HeistConfig spliceConfig "" True)
  case heist of
    Right heist' -> do
      rendered <- lift $ I.renderTemplate (hsBinding heist') $ convertString fileName
      case (rendered) of
        Just (builder, _) -> do
          html . convertString $ toLazyByteString builder
        Nothing -> error "heist error"
    Left a -> error . convertString $ show a

And the render path should not have the directory specified:

renderTemplate "compareForm"  $ I.bindSplice "test" $ I.textSplice "abcxyz"

The above might not work for compiled templates, one would probably need to modify this line (probably the (\_ -> False): let spliceConfig = SpliceConfig emptyI emptyI emptyC emptyA templateLocations (\_ -> False):: SpliceConfig IO

There are potential performance implications with the above, see https://github.com/snapframework/heist/issues/102
