usage

{
  use(new Thl());
  get("/", () -> {
    return Results.html("index")
        .put("model", new MyModel());
  });

  // Or Thymeleaf API:
  get("/thymeleaf-api", () -> {
    TemplateEngine engine = require(TemplateEngine.class);
    engine.process("template", ...);
  });
}

Templates are loaded from root of classpath: / and must end with: .html file extension. Example:

public/index.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">
<body>
<p>
Hello <span th:text="${model.name}">World</span>!!!
</p>
</body>
</html>

template loader

Templates are loaded from the root of classpath and must end with .html. You can change the default template location and/or extensions:

{
  use(new Thl("templates", ".thl"));
}

request locals

A template engine has access to request locals (a.k.a attributes). Here is an example:

{
  use(new Thl());

  get("*", req -> {
    req.set("foo", bar);
  });

}

Then from template:

<span th:text="${who}">World</span>

template cache

Cache is OFF when env=dev (useful for template reloading), otherwise is ON.

advanced configuration

Advanced configuration if provided by callback:

{
  use(new Thl().doWith(engine -> {
    engine.addDialect(...);
  }));

}
