1. Description *vimplate-description*
Vimplate provides an extensible and powerful template processing system.
It is based on Perl and Template-Toolkit.
You can create templates for program code, makefiles, letters, html pages,
latex etc. As example vimplate contains templates for C++, LaTeX, Perl
and Makefile.
With vimplate you can write templates which interact with the user.
For themes are the functions choice() and input().
You can choose different locale for the function date() and locale().
You can write your own perl code directly in the templates.
In case you find my template useful,
or have suggestions for improvements, please let me know.
If you write a new template,
and would like me to add it to the vimplate package
please send it to: stotz@gmx.ch
2. Usage *vimplate-usage*
Usage:
:Vimplate <template> [options]
choice <template> whit <TAB> (command line completion is supported).
With <TAB> all templates are listed.
[options]
-user|u=<username>
Use the information form user <username> while parsing templates.
-dir|d=<templatedir>
Search templatefiles in <templatedir>.
3. Subroutines *vimplate-subroutines*
locale() for locale please see: man locale
[% loc=locale() %] get the current locale
and write it to the variable loc
[% locale('C') %] set global the current locale to C
[% locale('de_DE') %] set global the current locale to de_DE
date() for date please see: man date
[% date('%c') %] print the current date
with the current locale setting
[% date('de_DE', '%c') %] print the current date with the locale de_DE
input()
[% var=input() %] read input from user
and write it to the variable var
choice()
[% day=choice('day:', 'Su', 'Mo', 'Tu', 'We', 'Th', 'Fr', 'Sa') %]
let the user choice between different values
and write it to the variable day
please try :Vimplate Test

a Makefile Template for LaTeX:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/Makefile-LaTeX.tt.html
the generated Makefile:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/Makefile.html
c++ Templates:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/hpp-default.tt.html
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/cpp-default.tt.html
the generated class:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/Example.hpp.html
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/Example.cpp.html
the generated class with doxygen:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/ExampleDoxy.hpp.html
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/ExampleDoxy.cpp.html
a perl Template:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/perl.tt.html
the genereated program:
http://typedef.ch/vimplate/example/Example.pl.html
the genereated program with Log4Perl:

Example:
the template letter.tt:
________________________________________________________
[%
sex=choice('sex: ', 'female', 'male')
name=input('name: ')
location=input('your location: ')
-%]
[% ucfirst(location) %], [% date('C', '%b %d, %Y') %]
Dear [% IF sex=='female'; 'Ms'; ELSE; 'Mr'; END %] [% ucfirst(name) %]
...
Sincerely
[% user.firstname %] [% user.lastname %]
________________________________________________________
run vim:
:Vimplate letter
sex:
0) female
1) male
0
name: Meier
your location: Olten
your input was:
:Vimplate letter<CR>0<CR>Meier<CR>Olten<CR>
this will produce this letter:

the template hpp-default.tt:

-%]
#ifndef [% uc(classname) %]_HPP
#define [% uc(classname) %]_HPP
