Vuejs-syntax like template-engine for Go
Vpl
Vpl is a Vuejs-syntax like template-engine for Golang.
- Componentization
- Powerful template syntax for the modern html
- Supports Js(Es5) expressions
- A little faster (I tried my best to optimize :)
Installation
go get github.com/zbysir/vpl
Getting Started
Write the main.go
file as follows
package main
import (
"context"
"github.com/zbysir/vpl"
)
func main() {
v := vpl.New()
err := v.ComponentTxt("app", `
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html :lang="lang">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>{{title}}</title>
</head>
<body>
<div :id="id" style="font-size: 20px" :style="{color: color}">
<span v-if="color=='red'">
color is red
</span>
<span v-else>
color is {{color}}
</span>
</div>
</body>
</html>
`)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
props := vpl.NewProps()
props.AppendMap(map[string]interface{}{
"title": "hello vpl",
"color": "red",
"id": "content",
"lang": "en",
})
html, err := v.RenderComponent("app", &vpl.RenderParam{
Global: nil,
Ctx: context.Background(),
Props: props,
})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
print(html)
// Output: <!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"><head><meta charset="UTF-8"><title>hello vpl</title></head><body><div style="color: red; font-size: 20px;"><span>color is red</span></div></body></html>
}
Then run it.

Description of the parameters
You only need to understand a few parameters.
vpl.Props
props := vpl.NewProps()
// use Append to add a variable
props.Append("lang", "en")
// use AppendMap to add multiple variables
props.AppendMap(map[string]interface{}{
"title": "hello vpl",
"color": "red",
})
vpl.RenderParam
vpl.RenderParam{
Global: nil, // Defined Global Variable in this rendering.
Props: props, // Parameters of the rendering component.
}
Admonition
All data used by Vpl must be a golang base types, such as int64
, int
, float32
, float64
, []interface
, map[string]interface{}
.
The following example is wrong:
props.Append("list", [3]int{1, 2, 3})
You should use []interface
type instead of [3]int
:
props.Append("list", []interface{}{1, 2, 3})
For convenience, vpl provides vpl.Copy function to convert a complex structure to a structure containing only basic types.
props.Append("list", vpl.Copy([3]int{1, 2, 3}))
Don't worry too much about performance, it is only executed once in each render.
With Go features
Let's add some go features to vpl.
Parallel
The advantage of go is concurrency, can vpl use it?
YES! Use the <parallel>
component.
Let's see this example:
<div>
<div>
<!-- Some things took 1s -->
{{ sleep(1) }}
</div>
<div>
<!-- Some things took 2s -->
{{ sleep(2) }}
</div>
</div>
It will take 3s if the template is executed in order. You can wrap them with parallel
component to parallel them.
<div>
<parallel>
<div>
<!-- Some things took 1s -->
{{ sleep(1) }}
</div>
</parallel>
<parallel>
<div>
<!-- Some things took 2s -->
{{ sleep(2) }}
</div>
</parallel>
</div>
It only takes 2s now.
