templates/layouts with no file extension?

[Gary]

hello,

How can I avoid mojolicious automatically assuming my templates and
layouts have the extension ".html.ep"?

At the moment I have to manually read the files, then render them
inline in order for this to work. Is there a better way?

thank you

I think you may be looking for these:

    $renderer->add_handler(epl => sub {...});

    $renderer->default_handler('ep');

thanks for replying, though I don't think I asked the question
clearly...

I'm trying to avoid adding any extension at all to the template and
layout file names (.format.handler), not just changing the format or
handler..

reading the file manually and then rendering inline works, but is an
ugly workaround. I was hoping for a nicer solution.

The renderer relies heavily on double extensions, you would have to hack it and make your code incompatible with plugins i'm afraid.

You could perhaps also get away with custom handlers, but it's rather hackish.

I'm trying to avoid adding any extension at all to the template and
layout file names (.format.handler), not just changing the format or
handler..

I had the same problem yesterday when trying to include some mustache templates. 

 

reading the file manually and then rendering inline works, but is an
ugly workaround. I was hoping for a nicer solution.

I was going to package up a nicer solution:

https://gist.github.com/2234505/330b6bd2cac66910debd20086e1455c90d5c80c6#file_mojolicious_plugin_include_static.pm

but I chickened out and just tacked on a 'html.ep'. 

sri: Any reason not to render static partials? Is a custom handler the right solution for something that can require no server side preprocessing, e.g., mustache template?

Thanks all for the comments...

I think I'm going to stick with manually reading then rendering inline
for templates/layouts that have no extension (or an arbitrary one).

Hi. I've been having related distress.

Adobe Dreamweaver can't handle .html.ep as html so
I've wanted to rename them into .ep.html style.
To achive this, I've started to use a plugin.

https://github.com/jamadam/Mojolicious-Plugin-TemplateNameRule

The plugin relies on very evil hack but works for now.

The big problem with these kinds of hacks is that they break all plugins that bundle templates, which i hope will be a lot in the future.

I see.
Maybe my plugin can limit the extent of the impact
into specific path out of renderer->paths
 ... by extra hack on template_path ... hnn, it's too dirty.
