SagaStencilRenderer

A renderer for Saga that uses Stencil to turn a RenderingContext into a String.

It comes with a free function named stencil which takes an HTML template and a Stencil Environment, and returns a function that goes from RenderingContext to String, which can then be plugged into Saga's writers.

    try await saga
      // All the Markdown files will be parsed to html,
      // using the default EmptyMetadata as the Item's metadata type.
      .register(
        metadata: EmptyMetadata.self,
        readers: [.parsleyMarkdownReader()],
        itemWriteMode: .keepAsFile,
        writers: [
          .itemWriter(stencil("page.html", environment: getEnvironment(root: saga.rootPath)))
        ]
      )

      // Run the steps we registered above
      .run()

      // All the remaining files that were not parsed to markdown, so for example images, raw html files and css,
      // are copied as-is to the output folder.
      .staticFiles()
  }
}

func getEnvironment(root: Path) -> Environment {
  Environment(loader: FileSystemLoader(paths: [root + "templates"]))
}

Please check out the Example app to play around.

Extending the Stencil Environment

You can extend the Environment with your own tags and filters, see the official Stencil docs. This is why you need to pass in an Environment, instead of SagaStencilRenderer creating one for you.

For example:

func getEnvironment(root: Path) -> Environment {
  let ext = Extension()
  
  ext.registerFilter("url") { (value: Any?) in
    guard let item = value as? AnyItem else {
      return ""
    }
    var url = "/" + item.relativeDestination.string
    if url.hasSuffix("/index.html") {
      url.removeLast(10)
    }
    return url
  }

  return Environment(loader: FileSystemLoader(paths: [root + "templates"]), extensions: [ext])
}
