Barbell is like the templating system Handlebars, but with BQN's Under doing the heavy lifting

Demo

BQNPad

How-to

barbell.bqn takes one input parameter, which is the filename to process. For example, cbqn barbell.bqn myfile.html. Next, the current shell directory will be scanned for filenames ending in .bar: the name of the file will be made into a variable which is searched from the template. So, if you have a file called title.bar which has the contents of My website, then any occurance of |title| in myfile.html will be replaced with My website.

Implementation

Notes:

  • If you have clauses in |title| which do not match anything, then the bars are kept.

  • Currently, the matches have to be precise: the variable will result in no match being made.
