Inversion::Template::

Tag class

Inversion template tag node base class. Represents a directive in a template that defines behavior and/or state.

This class supports the RubyGems plugin API: to provide one or more Inversion tags in a gem of your own, put them into a directory named ‘inversion/template’ and name the files <tagname>tag.rb and the classes <tagname.capitalize>Tag.

Constants

TAG_PLUGIN_PATTERN

The glob pattern for matching template tag plugins

Attributes

body R

the body of the tag

Public Class Methods

create( tagname, body, linenum=nil, colnum=nil )

Create a new Inversion::Template::Tag from the specified ‘tagname` and `body`.

# File lib/inversion/template/tag.rb, line 120
def self::create( tagname, body, linenum=nil, colnum=nil )
        tagname =~ /^(\w+)$/i or raise ArgumentError, "invalid tag name %p" % [ tagname ]
        tagtype = $1.downcase

        unless tagclass = self.types[ tagtype.to_sym ]
                Inversion.log.warn "Unknown tag type %p; registered: %p" %
                        [ tagtype, self.types.keys ]
                return nil
        end

        return tagclass.new( body, linenum, colnum )
end
inherited( subclass )

Inheritance hook – keep track of loaded derivatives.

# File lib/inversion/template/tag.rb, line 47
def self::inherited( subclass )
        # Inversion.log.debug "%p inherited from %p" % [ subclass, self ]
        Inversion::Template::Tag.derivatives << subclass
        Inversion.log.debug "Loaded tag type %p" % [ subclass ]
        super
end
load( tagfile )

Safely load the specified ‘tagfile`.

# File lib/inversion/template/tag.rb, line 107
def self::load( tagfile )
        tagrequire = tagfile[ %r{inversion/template/\w+tag} ] or
                raise "tag file %p doesn't look like a tag plugin" % [ tagfile ]
        require( tagrequire )
rescue => err
        Inversion.log.error "%s while loading tag plugin %p: %s" %
                [ err.class.name, tagfile, err.message ]
        Inversion.log.debug "  " + err.backtrace.join( "\n  " )
        return false
end
load_all()

Load all available template tags and return them as a Hash keyed by their name.

# File lib/inversion/template/tag.rb, line 63
def self::load_all
        tags = {}

        Gem.find_files( TAG_PLUGIN_PATTERN ).each do |tagfile|

        end

        @types ||= {}
        @types.merge!( tags )

        return @types
end
new( body, linenum=nil, colnum=nil )

Create a new Inversion::Template::Tag with the specified ‘body`.

# File lib/inversion/template/tag.rb, line 139
def initialize( body, linenum=nil, colnum=nil )
        super
        @body = body.to_s.strip
end
types()

Return a Hash of all loaded tag types, loading them if they haven’t been loaded already.
