Using ERB, actual Ruby code can be added to any plain text document for the purposes of generating document information details and/or flow control. A very simple example is this: require 'erb' x = 42 template = ERB.new <<-EOF The value of x is: <%= x %> EOF puts template.result(binding) Prints: The value of x is: 42 More complex examples are given below. == Recognized Tags ERB recognizes certain tags in the provided template and converts them based on the rules below: <% Ruby code -- inline with output %> <%= Ruby expression -- replace with result %> <%# comment -- ignored -- useful in testing %> % a line of Ruby code -- treated as <% line %> (optional -- see ERB.new) %% replaced with % if first thing on a line and % processing is used <%% or %%> -- replace with <% or %> respectively All other text is passed through ERB filtering unchanged. == Options There are several settings you can change when you use ERB: * the nature of the tags that are recognized; * the value of $SAFE under which the template is run; * the binding used to resolve local variables in the template. See the ERB.new and ERB#result methods for more detail. == Character encodings ERB (or ruby code generated by ERB) returns a string in the same character encoding as the input string. When the input string has a magic comment, however, it returns a string in the encoding specified by the magic comment. # -*- coding: UTF-8 -*- require 'erb' template = ERB.new < \_\_ENCODING\_\_ is <%= \_\_ENCODING\_\_ %>. EOF puts template.result Prints: \_\_ENCODING\_\_ is Big5. == Examples === Plain Text ERB is useful for any generic templating situation. Note that in this example, we use the convenient "% at start of line" tag, and we quote the template literally with %q{...} to avoid trouble with the backslash. require "erb" # Create template. template = %q{ From: James Edward Gray II To: <%= to %> Subject: Addressing Needs <%= to[/\w+/] %>: Just wanted to send a quick note assuring that your needs are being addressed. I want you to know that my team will keep working on the issues, especially: <%# ignore numerous minor requests -- focus on priorities %> % priorities.each do |priority| * <%= priority %> % end Thanks for your patience. James Edward Gray II }.gsub(/^ /, '') message = ERB.new(template, 0, "%<>") # Set up template data. to = "Community Spokesman " priorities = [ "Run Ruby Quiz", "Document Modules", "Answer Questions on Ruby Talk" ] # Produce result. email = message.result puts email Generates: From: James Edward Gray II To: Community Spokesman Subject: Addressing Needs Community: Just wanted to send a quick note assuring that your needs are being addressed. I want you to know that my team will keep working on the issues, especially: * Run Ruby Quiz * Document Modules * Answer Questions on Ruby Talk Thanks for your patience. James Edward Gray II === Ruby in HTML ERB is often used in .rhtml files (HTML with embedded Ruby). Notice the need in this example to provide a special binding when the template is run, so that the instance variables in the Product object can be resolved. require "erb" # Build template data class. class Product def initialize( code, name, desc, cost ) @code = code @name = name @desc = desc @cost = cost @features = [ ] end def add_feature( feature ) @features << feature end # Support templating of member data. def get_binding binding end # ... end # Create template. template = %{ Ruby Toys -- <%= @name %>

<%= @name %> (<%= @code %>)

<%= @desc %>

    <% @features.each do |f| %>
  • <%= f %>
  • <% end %>

<% if @cost < 10 %> Only <%= @cost %>!!! <% else %> Call for a price, today! <% end %>

}.gsub(/^ /, '') rhtml = ERB.new(template) # Set up template data. toy = Product.new( "TZ-1002", "Rubysapien", "Geek's Best Friend! Responds to Ruby commands...", 999.95 ) toy.add_feature("Listens for verbal commands in the Ruby language!") toy.add_feature("Ignores Perl, Java, and all C variants.") toy.add_feature("Karate-Chop Action!!!") toy.add_feature("Matz signature on left leg.") toy.add_feature("Gem studded eyes... Rubies, of course!") # Produce result. rhtml.run(toy.get_binding) Generates (some blank lines removed): Ruby Toys -- Rubysapien

== Notes There are a variety of templating solutions available in various Ruby projects: * ERB's big brother, eRuby, works the same but is written in C for speed; * Amrita (smart at producing HTML/XML); * cs/Template (written in C for speed); * RDoc, distributed with Ruby, uses its own template engine, which can be reused elsewhere; * and others; search the RAA. Rails, the web application framework, uses ERB to create views. =end class ERB Revision = '$Date:: $' #' # Returns revision information for the erb.rb module. def self.version "erb.rb [2.1.0 #{ERB::Revision.split[1]}]" end end #-- # ERB::Compiler class ERB class Compiler # :nodoc: class PercentLine # :nodoc: def initialize(str) @value = str end attr_reader :value alias :to_s :value def empty? @value.empty? end end class Scanner # :nodoc: @scanner_map = {} def self.regist_scanner(klass, trim_mode, percent) @scanner_map[[trim_mode, percent]] = klass end def self.default_scanner=(klass) @default_scanner = klass end def self.make_scanner(src, trim_mode, percent) klass = @scanner_map.fetch([trim_mode, percent], @default_scanner) klass.new(src, trim_mode, percent) end def initialize(src, trim_mode, percent) @src = src @stag = nil end attr_accessor :stag def scan; end end class TrimScanner < Scanner # :nodoc: def initialize(src, trim_mode, percent) super @trim_mode = trim_mode @percent = percent if @trim_mode == '>' @scan_line = self.method(:trim_line1) elsif @trim_mode == '<>' @scan_line = self.method(:trim_line2) elsif @trim_mode == '-' @scan_line = self.method(:explicit_trim_line) else @scan_line = self.method(:scan_line) end end attr_accessor :stag def scan(&block) @stag = nil if @percent @src.each_line do |line| percent_line(line, &block) end else @scan_line.call(@src, &block) end nil end def percent_line(line, &block) if @stag || line[0] != ?% return @scan_line.call(line, &block) end line[0] = '' if line[0] == ?% @scan_line.call(line, &block) else yield(PercentLine.new(line.chomp)) end end def scan_line(line) line.scan(/(.*?)(<%%|%%>|<%=|<%#|<%|%>|\n|\z)/m) do |tokens| tokens.each do |token| next if token.empty? yield(token) end end end def trim_line1(line) line.scan(/(.*?)(<%%|%%>|<%=|<%#|<%|%>\n|%>|\n|\z)/m) do |tokens| tokens.each do |token| next if token.empty? if token == "%>\n" yield('%>') yield(:cr) else yield(token) end end end end def trim_line2(line) head = nil line.scan(/(.*?)(<%%|%%>|<%=|<%#|<%|%>\n|%>|\n|\z)/m) do |tokens| tokens.each do |token| next if token.empty? head = token unless head if token == "%>\n" yield('%>') if is_erb_stag?(head) yield(:cr) else yield("\n") end head = nil else yield(token) head = nil if token == "\n" end end end end def explicit_trim_line(line) line.scan(/(.*?)(^[ \t]*<%\-|<%\-|<%%|%%>|<%=|<%#|<%|-%>\n|-%>|%>|\z)/m) do |tokens| tokens.each do |token| next if token.empty? if @stag.nil? && /[ \t]*<%-/ =~ token yield('<%') elsif @stag && token == "-%>\n" yield('%>') yield(:cr) elsif @stag && token == '-%>' yield('%>') else yield(token) end end end end ERB_STAG = %w(<%= <%# <%) def is_erb_stag?(s) ERB_STAG.member?(s) end end Scanner.default_scanner = TrimScanner class SimpleScanner < Scanner # :nodoc: def scan @src.scan(/(.*?)(<%%|%%>|<%=|<%#|<%|%>|\n|\z)/m) do |tokens| tokens.each do |token| next if token.empty? yield(token) end end end end Scanner.regist_scanner(SimpleScanner, nil, false) begin require 'strscan' class SimpleScanner2 < Scanner # :nodoc: def scan stag_reg = /(.*?)(<%%|<%=|<%#|<%|\z)/m etag_reg = /(.*?)(%%>|%>|\z)/m scanner = StringScanner.new(@src) while ! scanner.eos? scanner.scan(@stag ? etag_reg : stag_reg) yield(scanner[1]) yield(scanner[2]) end end end Scanner.regist_scanner(SimpleScanner2, nil, false) class ExplicitScanner < Scanner # :nodoc: def scan stag_reg = /(.*?)(^[ \t]*<%-|<%%|<%=|<%#|<%-|<%|\z)/m etag_reg = /(.*?)(%%>|-%>|%>|\z)/m scanner = StringScanner.new(@src) while ! scanner.eos? scanner.scan(@stag ? etag_reg : stag_reg) yield(scanner[1]) elem = scanner[2] if /[ \t]*<%-/ =~ elem yield('<%') elsif elem == '-%>' yield('%>') yield(:cr) if scanner.scan(/(\n|\z)/) else yield(elem) end end end end Scanner.regist_scanner(ExplicitScanner, '-', false) rescue LoadError end class Buffer # :nodoc: def initialize(compiler, enc=nil) @compiler = compiler @line = [] @script = enc ?
