| **Rinja** implements a template rendering engine based on [Jinja](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/), |
| and generates type-safe Rust code from your templates at compile time |
| based on a user-defined `struct` to hold the template's context. |
| See below for an example. It is a fork of [Askama](https://crates.io/crates/askama). |
| |
| All feedback welcome! Feel free to file bugs, requests for documentation and |
| any other feedback to the [issue tracker][issues]. |
| |
| You can find the documentation about our syntax, features, configuration in our book: |
| [rinja.readthedocs.io](https://rinja.readthedocs.io/). |
| |
| Have a look at our [*Rinja Playground*](https://rinja-rs.github.io/play-rinja/), |
| if you want to try out rinja's code generation online. |
| |
| ### Feature highlights |
| |
| * Construct templates using a familiar, easy-to-use syntax |
| * Benefit from the safety provided by Rust's type system |
| * Template code is compiled into your crate for optimal performance |
| * Optional built-in support for Actix, Axum, Rocket, and warp web frameworks |
| * Debugging features to assist you in template development |
| * Templates must be valid UTF-8 and produce UTF-8 when rendered |
| * Works on stable Rust |
| |
| ### Supported in templates |
| |
| * Template inheritance |
| * Loops, if/else statements and include support |
| * Macro support |
| * Variables (no mutability allowed) |
| * Some built-in filters, and the ability to use your own |
| * Whitespace suppressing with '-' markers |
| * Opt-out HTML escaping |
| * Syntax customization |

| How to get started |
| ------------------ |
| |
| First, add the rinja dependency to your crate's `Cargo.toml`: |
| |
| ```sh |
| cargo add rinja |
| ``` |
| |
| Now create a directory called `templates` in your crate root. |
| In it, create a file called `hello.html`, containing the following: |
| |
| ```jinja |
| Hello, {{ name }}! |
| ``` |
| |
| In any Rust file inside your crate, add the following: |
| |
| ```rust |
| use rinja::Template; // bring trait in scope |
| |
| #[derive(Template)] // this will generate the code... |
| #[template(path = "hello.html")] // using the template in this path, relative |
| // to the `templates` dir in the crate root |
| struct HelloTemplate<'a> { // the name of the struct can be anything |
| name: &'a str, // the field name should match the variable name |
| // in your template |
| } |
| |
| fn main() { |
| let hello = HelloTemplate { name: "world" }; // instantiate your struct |
| println!("{}", hello.render().unwrap()); // then render it. |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| You should now be able to compile and run this code. |
