doctemplates

0.11.0.1

• Bump version bounds for doclayout.

• Fix typos.

0.11

• Remove HsYAML depenedency.

• Remove upper bound for criterion.

0.10.0.2

• Use doclayout 0.4.

0.10.0.1

• Don't rely on aeson Object being implemented as a HashMap. This change is needed for doctemplates to compile against aeson 2.0.0.0.

0.10

• Change rendering and conditional behavior with booleans. Previously, $if(foo)$ evaluated to false iff foo would render as the empty string. This forced us to render a boolean False value as an empty string, rather than false. And this has caused various problems with templates (#16, jgm/pandoc#7402). Now, boolean False values render as false -- just as True values render as true. And conditionals are now sensitive to booleans, so $if(foo)$ evaluates to false when foo is a boolean False value, even though it would render as the nonempty string false.

0.9

• Add BoolVal constructor to Val. This gives a smoother interface with JSON and YAML. [API change]

• Remove overlapping instances by generalizing ToContext String String and FromContext String String to TemplateTarget [a] => ToContext [a] [a] and TemplateTarget [a] => FromContext [a] [a]. Remove the instance ToContext String (Doc String). Remove redundant constraints. (#9, favonia) [API change]

0.8.3

• Properly handle nested loops (#15). Previously "it" was always used for the variable in a loop, and in a nested loop there was no way to distinguish the value of the inner iteration from the value of the outer one. Now we assign the iterated value to both "it" and to the original variable name (e.g. "foo.bar"). This probably has a small negative performance impact. Note that this change also affects the output of the template parser: original variable names are now retained instead of being replaced by "it".

• Remove duplicate IsString constraint (#14, Mario Lang).

• Update haddocks from README (#10).

• Minor code clean-ups (#7, favonia).

• Add hsyaml >= 0.2 constraint (#6).

0.8.2

• Add filters: first, rest, last, allbutlast.

• New constructors for Filter: FirstItem, LastItem, Rest, AllButLast [API change].

0.8.1

• Depend on doclayout 0.3, which adds an additional method on the HasChars class. This fixes some stack overflows in rendering very long lines.

0.8

• Change Filter data type to Pipe. Use the nomenclature of "pipe" instead of "filter" to avoid confusion in pandoc between two notions of filter. Otherwise everything works the same.

0.7.2

• Add nowrap filter.

• Improve alpha, roman, uppercase, lowercase filters so they apply recursively within a list or map.

• Allow for loops to bind map value. In this case there is no iteration, but the anophoric variable 'it' is assigned, which may help in using filters that destructure a string into a map (if we add any).

0.7.1

• Add chomp filter.

• Allow filters to be applied to output of partials.

0.7

• Add haddock Makefile target, which regenerates haddocks from README and tests the code example.

• Remove BreakingSpace constructor on Template. Now we use doclayout BreakingSpace inside a Literal.

• Add instance for ToContext a (Doc a).

• Get benchmarks compiling again.

• Use (doclayout) Doc internally and for rendered output.

  • TemplateTarget is now a type constraint synonym, not a regular typeclass.
  • Constraint on compileTemplate and applyTemplate simplified using TemplateTarget.
  • DocTemplates reexports Text.DocLayout.Doc.
  • The Literal costructor of Template now takes a Doc a rather than an a.
  • The SimpleVal constructor of Val now takes a Doc a rather than an a.
  • renderTemplate now returns a Doc a rather than an a. (This value can be converted to an a using render Nothing.)

• Remove fromText from TemplateTarget. Now we use fromString from Data.String.

• Parameterize Template on underlying stringlike type.

• Improved behavior of partials.

• Improve indent functions: don't drop final newline.

• Allow blank lines in nested section.

• Indent for Text/String: don't indent empty lines.

• Additional tests and documentation about nesting.

• Render items in for loop before separator. Otherwise we throw off column calculation.

• Remove +-reflow; replace with toggle $~$.

• Remove pNewline parser; it isn't needed now.

• Remove +-nest.

• Fix nest parsing bug.

• Improve nesting.

  • Change Nested constructor for Template so it doesn't take a parameter.
  • Nesting level is now determined dynamically at render time rather than at compile time. This gives much better results when nesting occurs after template directives. Benchmarks show a slight penalty in performance (from 3.5ms to 3.1ms in rendering), but it's not too much.

• Add filters. Filters transform the value of a variable, e.g. changing a map into an array of key/value pairs. Closes #5.

  • Internal: Add Filter type and [Filter] parameter on Variable.
  • Remove unVariable; now we have varParts and varFilters.
  • Document filters in README.md.
  • Implement filters.
  • Add tests.

• Add ToYAML, FromYAML instances for Context, Val.

0.6.2

• Remove unnecessary TemplateTarget constraints on ToContext instances.

• Add ToContext instance for Map Text a.

• Add Data, Typeable instances for Context and Val.

0.6.1

• Indent bare partials.

0.6

• Add +nest/-nest keywords.

• Add +reflow/-reflow keywords.

• Add Nested constructor to Template, remove Indented and Indented parameter for Interpolate.

• More expansive description of library.

0.5.1

• Add elseif keyword.

• Improve compile error source locations with partials.

• Handle templates that don't end in newlines. Previously this caused problems in some cases.

0.5

• Add toText method to TemplateTarget class.

• Add String and Lazy Text instances for TemplateTarget.

• Swap Parameters in ToContext (so that the first parameter for both ToContext and FromContext refers to the parameter of Context).

• Add toVal method to ToContext.

• Default instance definition for toContext in terms of toVal, so that defining toVal is sufficient.

• Add instances for ToContext and FromContext.

• Remove valueToContext. Add ToJSON, FromJSON instances for Context and Val instead.

• isEmpty: For Doc, treat Text 0 _ as empty. Also Concat x y when x and y are empty. This differs from isEmpty in DocLayout itself, which only applies to Empty.

• Code cleanup.

0.4

• Split into three modules. Main module only exports an opaque version of the Template type. Import Internal if you need to manipulate a Template.

• Add Context type, parameterized on the underlying content's type.

• Add Val type.

• Add valueToContext for converting an Aeson Value to a Context.

• Make renderTemplate and applyTemplate polymorphic in both context and target. Context parameter is now any instance of ToContext (instead of ToJSON). Result is now any instance of TemplateTarget.

• Change type of getPartial in TemplateMonad so it runs in the TemplateMonad instance, not the Parser. Return a simple value rather than an Either; error handling can vary with the monad.

• Remove TemplatePart. Template is now an algebraci data type, not a list of TemplateParts.

• Add an Indented type to indicate indentation for interpolated variables.

• Improve architecture, doing more at compile time.

• Depend on doclayout. Context can be parameterized on a doclayout Doc type, allowing intelligent reflowing of content.

• Remove single final newline in interpolated variable.

• Remove final newline from partial.

• Don't iterate when the variable evaluates to NullVal.

• Only indented interpolated variables if by themselves on line.

• Add Indented parameter to Interpolate constructor.

• Update documentation and haddocks.

• Add benchmark.

0.3.0.1

• Bump lower bound on base to 4.9, drop support for ghc 7.10.

• Add needed import for older base versions.

• Add test.hs to repository.

0.3

• Note that all of the changes to template syntax described below are backwards compatible, and all old pandoc templates should continue to work as before.

• Allow ${...} style delimiters around variables and directives, in addition to $...$. Allow space around the delimiters.

• Support $it$ as a variable for the current value in an iteration. (The old method, where the containing variable name is used, still works.)

• Support partials (subtemplates defined in different files).

• Interpolated array variables now have all elements rendered, concatenated, with an optional separator that can be specified using a new bracketed syntax.

• Remove TemplateTarget class. It was pointless; the calling program can just do these trivial transformations. Avoids dependencies on bytestring, blaze-html, blaze-markup.

• Change type of renderTemplate and applyTemplate to produce a Text, instead of being polymorphic.

• Changed type of compileTemplate: it now takes a template path and the template contents, and returns either a template or an error. It runs in an instance of TemplateMonad, which is an abstraction around different ways of getting partials. (For example, in IO we can get partials by reading them from a file system, but in a web application one might want to obtain them from the database or have a set of them baked in.)

• Remove varListToJSON.

• Changed the architecture: Template is no longer just a newtype around a function, but a list of TemplateParts.

• Added a newtype for Variable.

• Improved documentation in README.md.

• Added a new test framework and much more extensive tests.
