📝 Templates
Template interfaces
Fiber provides a Views interface to provide your own template engine:
- Views
type Views interface {
Load() error
Render(io.Writer, string, interface{}, ...string) error
}
Views interface contains a Load and Render method, Load is executed by Fiber on app initialization to load/parse the templates.
// Pass engine to Fiber's Views Engine
app := fiber.New(&fiber.Settings{
Views: engine,
})
The Render method is linked to the ctx.Render() function that accepts a template name and binding data.
app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
return c.Render("index", fiber.Map{
"hello": "world",
});
})
Engines
Fiber team maintains templates package that provides wrappers for multiple template engines:
- Example
- views/index.html
package main
import (
"github.com/gofiber/fiber"
"github.com/gofiber/template/html"
)
func main() {
// Initialize standard Go html template engine
engine := html.New("./views", ".html")
app := fiber.New(&fiber.Settings{
Views: engine,
})
app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) {
// Render index template
_ = c.Render("index", fiber.Map{
"Title": "Hello, World!",
})
})
app.Listen(3000)
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<body>
<h1>{{.Title}}</h1>
</body>
</html>
