= ERB -- Ruby Templating

== Introduction

ERB provides an easy to use but powerful templating system for Ruby.  Using
ERB, actual Ruby code can be added to any plain text document for the
purposes of generating document information details and/or flow control.

A very simple example is this:

  require 'erb'

  x = 42
  template = ERB.new <<-EOF
    The value of x is: <%= x %>
  EOF
  puts template.result(binding)

<em>Prints:</em> The value of x is: 42

More complex examples are given below.


== Recognized Tags

ERB recognizes certain tags in the provided template and converts them based
on the rules below:

  <% Ruby code -- inline with output %>
  <%= Ruby expression -- replace with result %>
  <%# comment -- ignored -- useful in testing %>
  % a line of Ruby code -- treated as <% line %> (optional -- see ERB.new)
  %% replaced with % if first thing on a line and % processing is used
  <%% or %%> -- replace with <% or %> respectively

All other text is passed through ERB filtering unchanged.


== Options

There are several settings you can change when you use ERB:
* the nature of the tags that are recognized;
* the value of <tt>$SAFE</tt> under which the template is run;
* the binding used to resolve local variables in the template.

See the ERB.new and ERB#result methods for more detail.

== Character encodings

ERB (or ruby code generated by ERB) returns a string in the same
character encoding as the input string.  When the input string has
a magic comment, however, it returns a string in the encoding specified
by the magic comment.

  # -*- coding: UTF-8 -*-
  require 'erb'

  template = ERB.new <<EOF
  <%#-*- coding: Big5 -*-%>
    \_\_ENCODING\_\_ is <%= \_\_ENCODING\_\_ %>.
  EOF
  puts template.result

<em>Prints:</em> \_\_ENCODING\_\_ is Big5.


== Examples

=== Plain Text

ERB is useful for any generic templating situation.  Note that in this example, we use the
convenient "% at start of line" tag, and we quote the template literally with
<tt>%q{...}</tt> to avoid trouble with the backslash.

  require "erb"
  
  # Create template.
  template = %q{
    From:  James Edward Gray II <james@grayproductions.net>
    To:  <%= to %>
    Subject:  Addressing Needs
  
    <%= to[/\w+/] %>:
  
    Just wanted to send a quick note assuring that your needs are being
    addressed.
  
    I want you to know that my team will keep working on the issues,
    especially:
  
    <%# ignore numerous minor requests -- focus on priorities %>
    % priorities.each do |priority|
      * <%= priority %>
    % end
  
    Thanks for your patience.
  
    James Edward Gray II
  }.gsub(/^  /, '')
  
  message = ERB.new(template, 0, "%<>")
  
  # Set up template data.
  to = "Community Spokesman <spokesman@ruby_community.org>"
  priorities = [ "Run Ruby Quiz",
                 "Document Modules",
                 "Answer Questions on Ruby Talk" ]
  
  # Produce result.
  email = message.result
  puts email

=== Ruby in HTML

ERB is often used in <tt>.rhtml</tt> files (HTML with embedded Ruby).  Notice the need in
this example to provide a special binding when the template is run, so that the instance
variables in the Product object can be resolved.

  require "erb"
  
  # Build template data class.
  class Product
    def initialize( code, name, desc, cost )
      @code = code
      @name = name
      @desc = desc
      @cost = cost
       	
      @features = [ ]
    end
  
    def add_feature( feature )
      @features << feature
    end
  
    # Support templating of member data.
    def get_binding
      binding
    end
  
    # ...
  end
  
  # Create template.
  template = %{
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
      <head><title>Ruby Toys -- <%= @name %></title></head>
      <body>
  
        <h1><%= @name %> (<%= @code %>)</h1>
        <p><%= @desc %></p>
  
        <ul>
          <% @features.each do |f| %>
            <li><b><%= f %></b></li>
          <% end %>
        </ul>
  
        <p>
          <% if @cost < 10 %>
            <b>Only <%= @cost %>!!!</b>
          <% else %>
             Call for a price, today!
          <% end %>
        </p>
   
      </body>
    </html>
  }.gsub(/^  /, '')
  
  rhtml = ERB.new(template)
  
  # Set up template data.
  toy = Product.new( "TZ-1002",
                     "Rubysapien",
                     "Geek's Best Friend!  Responds to Ruby commands...",
                     999.95 )
  toy.add_feature("Listens for verbal commands in the Ruby language!")
  toy.add_feature("Ignores Perl, Java, and all C variants.")
  toy.add_feature("Karate-Chop Action!!!")
  toy.add_feature("Matz signature on left leg.")
  toy.add_feature("Gem studded eyes... Rubies, of course!")
  
  # Produce result.
  rhtml.run(toy.get_binding)

== Notes

There are a variety of templating solutions available in various Ruby projects:
* ERB's big brother, eRuby, works the same but is written in C for speed;
* Amrita (smart at producing HTML/XML);
* cs/Template (written in C for speed);
* RDoc, distributed with Ruby, uses its own template engine, which can be reused elsewhere;
* and others; search the RAA.

Rails, the web application framework, uses ERB to create views.

# ERB
class ERB
  #
  # Constructs a new ERB object with the template specified in _str_.
  # 
  # An ERB object works by building a chunk of Ruby code that will output
  # the completed template when run. If _safe_level_ is set to a non-nil value,
  # ERB code will be run in a separate thread with <b>$SAFE</b> set to the
  # provided level.
  # 
  # If _trim_mode_ is passed a String containing one or more of the following
  # modifiers, ERB will adjust its code generation as listed:
  # 
  # 	%  enables Ruby code processing for lines beginning with %
  # 	<> omit newline for lines starting with <% and ending in %>
  # 	>  omit newline for lines ending in %>
  # 
  # _eoutvar_ can be used to set the name of the variable ERB will build up
  # its output in.  This is useful when you need to run multiple ERB
  # templates through the same binding and/or when you want to control where
  # output ends up.  Pass the name of the variable to be used inside a String.
  #
  # === Example
  #
  #  require "erb"
  #  
  #  # build data class
