🌸 Catmandu::Exporter::Template 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to Catmandu::Exporter::Template from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, it's a TT2 Template exporter in Catmandu style and it's literally so iconic 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

first up, from the command line, she's serving:

# From the command line
echo '{"colors":["red","green","blue"]}' |
    catmandu convert JSON to Template --template `pwd`/xml.tt

where xml.tt like:

<colors>
[% FOREACH c IN colors %]
   <color>[% c %]</color>
[% END %]
</colors>

and now from perl 🫶

# From perl
use Catmandu::Exporter::Template;

my $exporter = Catmandu::Exporter::Template->new(
            fix => 'myfix.txt'
            xml => 1,
            template_before => '<path>/header.xml' ,
            template => '<path>/record.xml' ,
            template_after => '<path>/footer.xml' ,
       );

$exporter->add_many($arrayref);
$exporter->add_many($iterator);
$exporter->add_many(sub { });

$exporter->add($hashref);

$exporter->commit; # trigger the template_after

printf "exported %d objects\n" , $exporter->count;
