  • Field Details

  • Method Details

    • templateName

      The logical name of the template which maybe different than templatePath().
      Returns:
      logical name of template. Never null.
    • templatePath

      If the template is a classpath resource file this will return the location that was originally resolved via config resolution.
      Returns:
      the location of the template or empty if the template is inlined.
      See Also:
      API Note
      since the return is the original path resolved by the annotation processor it may return a path with a starting "/" and thus it is recommend you call normalizePath() if you plan on loading the resource.
    • normalizePath

      default String normalizePath()
      Normalizes the path to used by ClassLoader.getResource(String). If the templatePath starts with a "/" it is stripped.
      Returns:
      normalized path
    • templateString

      The raw contents of the template. Useful if the template is inline. To determine if the template is actually inline use templateSource().
      Returns:
      the raw contents of the template never null.
      See Also:
      API Note
      An empty or blank template string maybe a valid inline template and does not mean it is not inline.
    • templateContentType

      The template content type is the class annotated with JStacheContentType which also describes the escaper to be used.
      Returns:
      the template content type.
      API Note
      The class returned must be annotated with JStacheContentType.
    • templateCharset

      The template Charset which is the original format of the template file and should ideally be used when encoding an HTTP response or similar. Furthermore ideally the template charset matches the chosen templateContentType() JStacheContentType.charsets() otherwise the escaper may not appropriately escape.

      IF the template is inline or charset was not set this will usually be StandardCharsets.UTF_8.

      Returns:
      the template Charset.
      See Also:
    • templateMediaType

      The template media-type from the JStacheContentType.
      Returns:
      media type maybe an empty string.
    • templateEscaper

      The escaper to be used on the template. See Escaper.of(Function).
      Returns:
      the escaper.
      See Also:
      API Note
      While the return signature is Function the function is often an Escaper but does not have to be.
    • templateFormatter

      The base formatter to be used on the template. See Formatter.of(Function).
      Returns:
      the formatter.
      See Also:
      API Note
      While the return signature is Function the function is often a Formatter but does not have to be.
    • supportsType

      boolean supportsType(Class<?> type)
      Checks to see if a template supports the model class.
      Parameters:
      type - the class of the model.
      Returns:
      if this renderer supports the class.
    • modelClass

      Return the model class (root context class annotated with JStache) that generated this template.
      Returns:
      model class
    • templateSource

      Where the template contents were retrieved from.
      Returns:
      an enum never null.
    • lastLoaded

      default long lastLoaded()
      The last loaded time if applicable. For statically compiled templates this will always be a negative number. For dynamically loaded templates this more likely will return a non negative number indicating some hint of when the template was last modified or loaded.
      Returns:
      the last modified or negative if not applicable
    • description

      default String description()
      Utility method similar to toString that describes the template meta data.
      Returns:
      description of the template.
