NAME

Budgie::Interpolator - a simple templating engine for Parrot.

SYNOPSIS

        .sub _main @MAIN
                .local pmc cons  # the constructor sub
                .local pmc tmpl  # the template instance                
        
                load_bytecode 'Budgie.pbc'
                load_bytecode 'Budgie/Interpolator.pbc'

                cons = find_global 'Budgie::Interpolator', 'new_'
                tmpl = cons()

                tmpl.for_string("Hello ${a}\n")
                tmpl.set_param("a", "World")
                tmpl.print()
        .end

using alternative delimiters

The default syntax interpolates a variable marked up like this

        My name is ${name}

You can change the delimiter for example to

        My name is <%= name %>

or even

        My name is <tmpl_var name >

with the alternative constructor

        cons = find_global 'Budgie::Interpolator', 'new_with_delimiters'
        tmpl = cons( '<%=', '%>' )
