- All Implemented Interfaces:
Loader<java.lang.String>
public class StringLoader extends java.lang.Object implements Loader<java.lang.String>
This loader is not intended to be used in a production system; it is primarily for testing and debugging. Many tags do not work when using this loader, such as "extends", "imports", "include".

getReader
public java.io.Reader getReader(java.lang.String templateName)
Description copied from interface:Loader
The reader which will be used by Pebble to read the contents of the template.
-
setPrefix
public void setPrefix(java.lang.String prefix)
Description copied from interface:Loader
Optional prefix to help find templates, ex "/WEB-INF/templates/" or "database_schema."
-
setSuffix
public void setSuffix(java.lang.String suffix)
Description copied from interface:Loader
Optional suffix to help find templates, ex ".html", ".peb"
-
setCharset
public void setCharset(java.lang.String charset)
Description copied from interface:Loader
A method for end users to change the charset used by the loader.- Specified by:
setCharset
in interfaceLoader<java.lang.String>
- Parameters:
charset
- Character set used by the loader when building a reader object
-
resolveRelativePath
public java.lang.String resolveRelativePath(java.lang.String relativePath, java.lang.String anchorPath)
Description copied from interface:Loader
Resolves the givenrelativePath
based on the givenanchorPath
.A path is considered as relative when it starts either with '..' or '.' and followed either by a '/' or '\\' otherwise the assumption is that the provided path is an absolute path.
- Specified by:
resolveRelativePath
in interfaceLoader<java.lang.String>
- Parameters:
relativePath
- the relative path which should be resolved.anchorPath
- the anchor path based on which the relative path should be resolved on.- Returns:
- the resolved path or
null
when the path could not be resolved.
-
createCacheKey
public java.lang.String createCacheKey(java.lang.String templateName)
Description copied from interface:Loader
This method resolves the given template name to a unique object which can be used as the key within thePebbleEngine.getTemplateCache()
. The returned object will be passed withLoader.getReader(Object)
.The resolve method can eventually add information to the cache key from the context (e.g. user session information, servlet request etc.).
As a concrete example if the loader loads a template created by a user form the database the template name itself is not uniquely identify the template. The identification of the template requires also the user which created the template. Hence for the key the user id and the template name should be used. So the cache key is enhanced by some contextual information.
The implementor of the method can add as many additional contextual information to the returned object. However the following things needs to be considered:
- This method will be called on each
PebbleEngine.getTemplate(String)
. Hence the implementation needs to be fast and eventually use some caching for the lookup process. - The returned object is used within a cache and hence needs to
implement
Object.equals(Object)
andObject.hashCode()
. - The object is kept in memory and hence it should not be to memory heavy.
Depending on this implementation the
PebbleEngine.getTemplateCache()
should be tuned in a way it can operate optimal. E.g. when the number of potential templates is infinite the cache should evict some templates at some point in time otherwise the stability of the memory is not given anymore.- Specified by:
createCacheKey
in interfaceLoader<java.lang.String>
- Parameters:
templateName
- The name of the template- Returns:
- Returns the cache key
- This method will be called on each
-
resourceExists
public boolean resourceExists(java.lang.String templateName)
- Specified by:
resourceExists
in interfaceLoader<java.lang.String>
