Free templating software for linux

Contemplate Web Templating System is a set of server-side scripts that makes it easy for web developers to separate content from code when building sites.
Contemplate assembles text content, page layouts, and server-side or client-side scripts into dynamically generated or precompiled web pages based on arguments you pass into each page.
From simple, content-oriented websites to complex, data-driven web applications, Contemplate separates different production tasks and allows writers, front-end developers, and web programmers to focus on what they do best.
Contemplate is distributed under the Apache Software License, which provides for free distribution and use for any purpose. The license forbids, however, the use of the name Contemplate for new products derived from the source code, and requires that Type A be credited in the source code and documentation of any derivative products.
The Contemplate source code is managed under an open source, closed development model, which means that users may view and modify the source for their own purposes, and may submit enhancement suggestions to Type A, but do not have direct access to Type As development environment. Suggestions relating to performance, security, and consistency between the different ports are particularly welcome.
Contemplate was originally written in Perl and subsequently ported to both PHP and ASP, so youll need one of those three scripting languages installed on your web server. We recommend the ASP version of Contemplate for Microsoft IIS servers and the PHP version for other servers, including Apache.
ASP comes pre-installed on all IIS servers, and PHP comes pre-installed with many Apache distributions; you can install PHP from a free download if your server does not already support it. The three Contemplate versions work identically, except for occasional differences noted in the documentation.
Since Contemplate stores its content in standard HTML files, you dont need any database software on your web server, and you can even switch from one version of Contemplate to another (for example, if migrating from a Windows to a Unix server) without modifying your content files or templates.
And Contemplate includes a Flattener utility, which allows you to develop on a server that supports server-side scripting, then compile your website to plain HTML pages and post it on any web server --even one with no scripting support at all!
Enhancements:
- Better Windows compatibility, improved localization, URL rewriting, and menu capabilities, and miscellaneous bugfixes.

dTemplate 2.5 is known as the most rapid templating system in the known universe (at least at the time of creating this project). This templating system is lightweight and supports the declarative programming style. It is fast, because it compiles the template once and the the compiled code is parsed by a highly optimized C code.

Template::Recall is a "Reverse callback" templating system.



SYNOPSIS

use Template::Recall;

my $tr = Template::Recall->new( template_path => /path/to/template/sections );

my @prods = (
soda,sugary goodness,$.99,
energy drink,jittery goodness,$1.99,
green tea,wholesome goodness,$1.59
);

$tr->render(header);

# Load template into memory

$tr->preload(prodrow);

for (@prods)
{
my %h;
my @a = split(/,/, $_);

$h{product} = $a[0];
$h{description} = $a[1];
$h{price} = $a[2];

print $tr->render(prodrow, %h);
}

# Remove template from memory

$tr->unload(prodrows);

print $tr->render(footer);

Template::Recall works using what I call a "reverse callback" approach. A "callback" templating system (i.e. Mason, Apache::ASP) generally includes template markup and code in the same file. The template "calls" out to the code where needed. Template::Recall works in reverse. Rather than inserting code inside the template, the template remains separate, but broken into sections. The sections are called from within the code at the appropriate times.

Template::Alloy::TT Perl module contains a Template::Toolkit role.

The Template::Alloy::TT role provides the syntax and the interface for Template::Toolkit version 1, 2, and 3. It also brings many of the features from the various templating systems.

And it is fast.

See the Template::Alloy documentation for configuration and other parameters.

HTML::Mason is a powerful Perl-based web site development and delivery engine. With Mason you can embed Perl code in your HTML and construct pages from shared, reusable components.

Mason solves the common problems of site development: caching, debugging, templating, maintaining development and production sites, and more.

Mason is 100% free and open source. Although it can be used from CGI or even stand-alone, it is optimally designed for use with two other open source technologies: mod_perl and Apache.

Class::MakeMethods::Template package contains extensible code templates.

SYNOPSIS

package MyObject;
use Class::MakeMethods::Template::Hash (
new => new,
string => foo,
number => bar,
);

my $obj = MyObject->new( foo => "Foozle", bar => 23 );
print $obj->foo();
$obj->bar(42);

MOTIVATION

If you compare the source code of some of the closure-generating methods provided by other subclasses of Class::MakeMethods, such as the hash accessors provided by the various Standard::* subclasses, you will notice a fair amount of duplication. This module provides a way of assembling common pieces of code to facilitate support the maintenance of much larger libraries of generated methods.

This module extends the Class::MakeMethods framework by providing an abstract superclass for extensible code-templating method generators.
Common types of methods are generalized into template definitions. For example, Template::Generics new provides a template for methods that create object instances, while Template::Generics scalar is a template for methods that allow you to get and set individual scalar values.

Thse definitions are then re-used and modified by various template subclasses. For example, the Template::Hash subclass supports blessed-hash objects, while the Template::Global subclass supports shared data; each of them includes an appropriate version of the scalar accessor template for those object types.

Each template defines one or more behaviors, individual methods which can be installed in a calling package, and interfaces, which select from those behaviours and indicate the names to install the methods under.

Each individual meta-method defined by a calling package requires a method name, and may optionally include other key-value parameters, which can control the operation of some meta-methods.
