Text::MicroMason::ServerPages - Alternate Syntax like ASP/JSP Templates SYNOPSIS
Instead of using this class directly, pass its name to be mixed in: use Text::MicroMason; my $mason = Text::MicroMason::Base->new( -ServerPages ); Use the standard compile and execute methods to parse and evalute templates: print $mason->compile( text=>$template )->( @%args ); print $mason->execute( text=>$template, @args ); Server Pages syntax provides another way to mix Perl into a text template: <% my $name = $ARGS{name}; if ( $name eq 'Dave' ) { %> I'm sorry <%= $name %>, I'm afraid I can't do that right now. <% } else { my $hour = (localtime)[2]; my $daypart = ( $hour > 11 ) ? 'afternoon' : 'morning'; %> Good <%= $daypart %>, <%= $name %>! <% } %> DESCRIPTION
This subclass replaces MicroMason's normal lexer with one that supports a syntax similar to Active Server Pages and Java Server Pages. Compatibility with Apache::ASP Apache::ASP is a full-featured application server toolkit with many fatures, of which only the templating functionality is emulated. This is not a drop-in replacement for Apache::ASP, as the implementation is quite different, but it should be able to process some existing templates without major changes. The following features of EmbPerl syntax are supported: o Angle-bracket markup tags The following syntax features of are not supported: o Dynamic XML/XSL processing. o Web server objects such as $Session, $Request, $Response, and $Application. o Application events such as Application_OnStart, Script_OnStart, and other gloga.asa features. Template Syntax The following elements are recognized by the ServerPages lexer: o <% perl statements %> Arbitrary Perl code to be executed at this point in the template. o <%= perl expression %> A Perl expression to be evaluated and included in the output. o <%& file, arguments %> Includes an external template file. o <%-- comment --%> Documentation or inactive code to be skipped over silently. Can also be used to quickly comment out part of a template. o <%name> ... </%name> Supported block names are: 'perl', 'args', 'once', 'init', 'cleanup', and 'doc'. Private Methods lex_token ( $type, $value ) = $mason->lex_token(); Lexer for <% ... %> tags. Attempts to parse a token from the template text stored in the global $_ and returns a token type and value. Returns an empty list if unable to parse further due to an error. SEE ALSO
