Usage

1. Input the template text into the left-side textarea.

• The left-side textarea supports tab indentation, Shift+Tab unindentation, and Enter for automatic indented newline.

2. Click the "render" button at the top-right corner.
3. The rendered result will be shown in the right textarea.

Two Formats

SiYuan supports two template formats:

1. The vanilla Golang template format: {{ }}.

2. The SiYuan built-in revised template format: .action{}.

   Mainly because the {{ }} syntax conflicts with the embed block syntax.

This plugin allows you to quickly convert between different formats by clicking the top-left buttons To .action and To {{ }}.

For example, with the following input into the textarea:

{{ now }}

And click the "To .action", it will be converted to:

.action{ now }

Action Region Syntax

It is not easy to write .action or {{}} on each line, especially when you want to test a very long template.

For convenience, this plugin offers a custom region syntax like this:

.startaction
$x := now
$x.Year
add 1 3 | sub 5
.endaction

Each line placed within the .startaction ... .endaction will be implicitly wrapped with {{ }} before rendering.

Notice! You cannot use this syntax in SiYuan's template system. Please click the "Translate Region" button at the top-right before you want to apply the template you are testing.
