velocity.java


Apache Velocity is a general purpose template engine.
This is a nodejs wrap for Apache Velocity.

Requirements

* JRE 1.6 or higher

API

$3

* _filename_ String
* _data_ Object
* _root_ String | Array
* _callback_ Function

Render the template specified by filename with data.

root accepts multi-value.
Root(s) from which the loader loads templates.
Templates may live in subdirectories of this root.
filename is the relative path to root.

Example:

``javascript
var velocity = require("velocity.java");
velocity.renderOnce("example.vm", {}, "example/", function(err, data) {
if (err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
console.log(data.toString());
});
`

The callback is passed two arguments (err, data),
where data is the buffer of the rendered template.

$3

* _port_ Number default = 12306
* _callback_ Function

callback, test whether the JRE exists. Then call the callback argument with either true or false.

Java startup time is often much slower,
because a lot of classes must be loaded before being used.
So, velocity.java provides one simple server to speed up rendering.
render usually used after startServer. Example:

`javascript
var velocity = require("velocity.java");
velocity.startServer(8000);
velocity.render("example.vm", {}, "example/", function(err, data) {
if (err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
console.log(data.toString());
velocity.stopServer();
});
