TPL the smallest template engine I could write
Introduction
Why tpl at all? It sounded like fun and I wanted a general purpose template tool that I could use in code generation.
Following the unix principal of a small tool that does one thing and one thing well I started this project. Since I’ve
really taken a like to the Go programming language I felt it made sense to use their built in text/template library.
It works by taking a text/template formatted file and a JSON file and writes the combined output to os.Stdout
Usage
tpl [options] template-file data-file
- options
- The optional flags which allow you to specify options for input and output.
- template-file
- A
text/templateformatted file - data-file
- A JSON key-map formatted file.
