The [[templates]] page lists templates +that can be used with this directive. + +The directive has an `id` parameter +that identifies the template to use. The remaining parameters are used to +fill out the template. + +## Example + + \[[!template id=note text="""Here is the text to insert into my note."""]] + +This fills out the `note` template, filling in the `text` field with +the specified value, and inserts the result into the page. + +## Using a template + +Generally, a value can include any markup that would be allowed in the wiki +page outside the template. Triple-quoting the value even allows quotes to +be included in it. Combined with multi-line quoted values, this allows for +large chunks of marked up text to be embedded into a template: + + \[[!template id=foo name="Sally" color="green" age=8 notes=""" + * \[[Charley]]'s sister. + * "I want to be an astronaut when I grow up." + * Really 8 and a half. + """]] + +## Creating a template + +The template is in a regular wiki page, located in the `templates/` +subdirectory inside the source directory of the wiki. +The contents of the [[templatebody]] directive are used as the +template. Anything outside that directive is not included in the template, +and is usually used as documentation describing the template. + +If the template does not contain a [[templatebody]] directive, the entire +source of the page is used for the template. This is deprecated, because +it leads to the template markup being interpreted as ordinary +page source when the page is built, as well as being used as the template. + +Alternatively, templates can be stored in a directory outside the wiki, +as files with the extension ".tmpl". +By default, these are searched for in `/usr/share/ikiwiki/templates`, +the `templatedir` setting can be used to make another directory be searched +first. When referring to templates outside the wiki source directory, the "id" +parameter is not interpreted as a pagespec, you must include the full filename +of the template page including the ".tmpl" extension, +and the templatebody directive is not used. E.g.: + + \[[!template id=blogpost.tmpl]] + +The template uses the syntax used by the [[!cpan HTML::Template]] perl +module, which allows for some fairly complex things to be done. Consult its +documentation for the full syntax, but all you really need to know are a +few things: + +* Each parameter you pass to the template directive will generate a + template variable. There are also some pre-defined variables like PAGE + and BASENAME. +* To insert the value of a variable, use ``. Wiki markup + in the value will first be converted to html. +* To insert the raw value of a variable, with wiki markup not yet converted + to html, use ``. +* To make a block of text conditional on a variable being set use + `text`. +* To use one block of text if a variable is set and a second if it's not, + use `textother text` + +Here's a sample template: + + \[[!templatebody < + Name: \[[]]
+ Age:
+ + Favorite color:
+ + No favorite color.
+
+ +
+ +
+ + ENDBODY]] + + This template describes a person. Parameters: name, age, + color (favorite color, optional), notes (optional). + +The filled out template will be formatted the same as the rest of the page +that contains it, so you can include WikiLinks and all other forms of wiki +markup in the template. Note though that such WikiLinks will not show up as +backlinks to the page that uses the template. + +Note the use of "raw_name" inside the [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]] generator in the +example above. This ensures that if the name contains something that might +be mistaken for wiki markup, it's not converted to html before being +processed as a [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]]. + + +[[!meta robots="noindex, follow"]] -- cgit v1.2.1
