A Go language port of the Twig templating engine.

Twig is a powerful templating language that supports macros, vertical and horizontal reuse, and an easy-to-learn syntax that promotes separation of logic and markup. Twig is also extremely extensible, and by default will autoescape content based on content type.

Stick brings these great features to Go projects.

Stick is currently quite usable except for a few important missing features: autoescaping, whitespace control, and proper error handling.

Stick is made up of three main parts: a lexer, a parser, and a template executor. Stick's lexer and parser are complete. Template execution is under development, but most functionality is complete.

See the to do list for additional information.

Stick is intended to be used as a library. The recommended way to install the library is using go get.

go get -u github.com/tyler-sommer/stick

Execute a simple Stick template.

package main

import (
	"github.com/tyler-sommer/stick"
	"os"
)

func main() {
    env := stick.NewEnv(nil)
	env.Execute("Hello, {{ name }}!", os.Stdout, map[string]stick.Value{"name": "Tyler"})
}
