MulleScionHTMLPreprocessor

🥣 A Preprocessor for HTML that converts <objc> and other tags to MulleScion {% %}

Write your MulleScion template code in HTML lookalike tags. Now reformat the HTML document and it doesn't destroy your template code (as much).

Check the Wiki for editor setup help.

Usage

Preprocessor support is available starting with MulleScion version 1859.

MulleScionParser *parser;

...
[parser setPreprocessor:[MulleScionHTMLPreprocessor object]];

Example

 <html>
  <head>
    <objc>
       x = @"Hello World";
    </objc>
  </head>
  <body>
    <if x>
       <h1></h1>
    <else/>
       <h1>I have nothing to say</h1>
    </if>
  </body>
</html>

Info

Hide the uglies in HTML preview

Unknown tags shouldn't get rendered by the browser. Therefore there is nothing to do for most tags. The text between <objc> and </objc> can be hidden with CSS:

<style type="text/css">
 objc { display: none; white-space: pre; }
</style>

Tags

Tag pairs enclose template content. The tag-pairs are translated to MulleScion handlebars. There is no syntax check done on the text following the tag identifier.

Tag Opener Closer Translates to
<block> </block> {% block %} {% endblock %}
<else/> {% else %}
<if expr> </if> {% if expr %} {% endif %}
<for var in expr> </for> {% for var in expr %} {% endfor %}
<objc> <objc> {% %}
<while expr> </while> {% while expr %} {% endwhile %}

objc is useful to add Objective-C code in the <head> section of the HTML document, but it can be placed anywhere. The other tags are more useful in the <body> section.

Notes

  • <block> is experimental, it might get removed
  • <else/> has no closer.
