Chinstrap

Note that Chinstrap has no dependencies in the compiler.

 
module.exports = ( ->
 
    class Chinstrap
 

Basic Setup

Value: open

The opener is the string pattern that marks the beginning of a code block. Default is {{

Value: close

The closer is the string pattern taht marks the end of a code block. Default is }}.

 
        open: "{{"
        close: "}}"
 

Methods: setOpen and setClose

Two methods to override the opne and close values.

 
        setOpen: (@open) ->
 
        setClose: (@close) ->
 

Main Execution Code

Method: merge

The main method to call when using Chinstrap.

Receives three arguments:

 
        merge: (template, data, returnSource) ->
            returnSource = typeof returnSource isnt 'undefined' and returnSource
            template = @render(template)
            fn = new Function("obj", template)
            if returnSource then str else fn(data)
 

Method: render (String str)

Workhorse method; converts the template into a function.

 
        render: (str) ->
            str = @stripWhiteSpace(str)
            str = @replaceOpenChars(str)
            str = str.replace(/((^|\}\})[^\t]*)'/g, "$1\r")
            str = @replaceQmarkWithIfOpen(str)
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?\@\=(.*?)\}\}/g, "\titerator=$1;\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?WHILE(.*?)\}\}/g, "\twhile ($1) {\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?\/WHILE(.*?)\}\}/g, "\t}\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?FOR(.*?)\}\}/g, "\tfor ($1) {\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?%(.*?)\}\}/g,"', this.merge($1), '")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?\/FOR(.*?)\}\}/g, "\t}\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?(IF|\?)(.*?)\}\}/g, "\tif (value($2)) {\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?\/(IF|\?)(.*?)\}\}/g, "\t}\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?(\-\?|ELSEIF)(.*?)\}\}/g, "\t} else if (value($2)) {\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\t\s?(\-|ELSE)(.*?)\}\}/g, "\t} else {\n}}")
            str = str.replace(/\@\@/g, "iterator")
            str = str.replace(/\@/g, "iterator.")
            str = str.split("\t").join("');\n")
            str = str.split(@close).join("p.push('")
            str = str.split("\r").join("\\'")
            str = "\nvar p=[],iterator = {},print=function(){p.push.apply(p,arguments);},value = function(val){if (typeof val == 'function') {return val.apply(iterator);} else {return val;}};\nwith(config){\np.push('" + str + "');\n}\nreturn p.join('');\n"

String Manipulation Functions

Method: stripWhiteSpace

The conceit of the Resig system is to remove lots of white space characters, and then use those characters as drop-ins for action items.

So step one is to remove tabs and returns, and replace them with a blank space.

 
        stripWhiteSpace: (str) -> str.replace(/[\r\t\n]/g, " ")
 

Method: replaceOpenChars

Chinstrap executes snippets of code that live between an open and close character. The default opener is "{{".

Now replace the open character (default "{{") with a tab character ("\t"). We'll use this to put the function back together later.

 
        replaceOpenChars: (str) -> str.split(@open).join("\t")
 

Replace ? with if statement

You can write an if statement in two alternate styles.

 
        replaceQmarkWithIfOpen: (str) -> str.replace(/\t\s?=(.*?)\}\}/g, "',value($1),'")
 
 
        compileWhileOpen: (str) ->
 
        compileWhileClose: (str) ->
 
        compileForOpen: (str) ->
 
        compileForClose: (str) ->
 
    module.exports = new Chinstrap()
)()
