Templatizer

The Templatizer is essentially a glorified search and replace function. Given a string template with certain variables that require to be replaced and an object containing the replacement variables, the templatizer will recursively loop through the variables until all templated variables have been replaced with the given replacements. It returns a string value which contains the newly replaced templated value.

Installation

To install this package you can simply use the install command below.

$ npm i --save skaleb-templatizer

Usage

import { Templatizer } from './Templatizer'

// New instantiation of the templatizer
const templatizer = new Templatizer()

.templatize templates a given template with the replacements supplied.

const template = 'This {{VAR1}} will be {{VAR2}} and returned'
const replacements = {
  var1: 'sentence',
  var2: 'templated'
}

const templated = templatizer.templatize(template, replacements)

// This sentence will be templated and returned
console.log(templated) 

.setTemplateStyle sets the indicators indicating the variables within the template. Default for open {{ and default for close }}

const template = 'This {VAR1} will be {VAR2} and returned'
const replacements = {
  var1: 'sentence',
  var2: 'templated'
}

const templated = templatizer.setTemplateStyle('{', '}')
  .templatize(template, replacements)

// This sentence will be templated and returned
console.log(templated)
