💖 NAME 💖

Jemplate::Directive — the Jemplate Code Generating Backend, aka the little engine that turns your templates into actual JavaScript 🔥

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use Jemplate::Directive;

that's it bestie, that's the whole vibe 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so listen. Jemplate::Directive is the analog to Template::Directive — and Template::Directive is the module that produces the actual code that templates turn into. iconic behavior tbh.

the Jemplate version obviously produces JavaScript code rather than Perl. no cap. other than that? the two modules are almost exactly the same. literally twins 👯

💀 BUGS 💀

unfortunately — and we hate to see it — some of the code generation seems to happen before Jemplate::Directive gets control. so it currently has heuristical code to rejigger Perl code snippets into JavaScript 😭 it's giving duct tape and prayers fr fr.

this processing needs to happen upstream once the author gets more clarity on how Template::Toolkit works. so like… it's a known situation. not me manifesting a fix tho 🙈
