Advanced template compiler with deep variable resolution, object processing, and strict validation with circular reference protection.
{{user.profile.name}})npm install templon
# or
yarn add templon
# or
pnpm add templon
import { compileTemplate } from "templon";
// Simple string interpolation
const result = compileTemplate("Hello {{name}}", { name: "World" });
// Output: "Hello World"
// Nested object access
const result = compileTemplate("Hello {{user.profile.name}}", {
user: {
profile: {
name: "John",
},
},
});
// Output: "Hello John"
// Array access
const result = compileTemplate("First user: {{users.0.name}}", {
users: [{ name: "John" }, { name: "Jane" }],
});
// Output: "First user: John"
Note: The template engine uses radash under the hood for deep property access, which provides safe and efficient object traversal.
const template = "Users: {{users}}";
const data = {
users: ["John", "Jane", "Bob"],
};
const result = compileTemplate(template, data);
// Output: "Users: John,Jane,Bob"
const template = "Hello <name>";
const result = compileTemplate(
template,
{ name: "World" },
{ variablePattern: /<([^{}]+)>/g }
);
// Output: "Hello World"
const template = "Hello {{name}}";
try {
compileTemplate(template, {}, { strict: true });
} catch (error) {
// Error: Missing variable: name
}
const template = "Hello {{user.name}}";
const result = compileTemplate(
template,
{},
{
resolver: (path) => {
if (path === "user.name") return "Custom User";
return undefined;
},
}
);
// Output: "Hello Custom User"
