Re: encode html entities in TT format

I HAVE USED URI | HTML

Please refrain from shouting in the monastery. This is a place of quiet contemplation.

Here is an SSCCE:

use strict;
use warnings;

use Test::More tests => 1;                      
use Template;

my $foo = 'some<stuff_to"be>escaped';
my $want = 'some%3Cstuff_to%22be%3Eescaped';

my $template = Template->new;
my $tmpl = '[% foo | uri %]';

my $out;
$template->process (\$tmpl, { foo => $foo }, \$out) or
    die $template->error ();
is ($out, $want);

Not shouting @hippo, :D Ok, So i already have perl module and a tool is based on MVC model. I can refer the script as mentioned by you but integration with pm files is quiet difficult. My aim to encode in the presentation layer or view which is template toolkit. Can you be able suggest something with respect to TT files only as mentioned above? or any other solution or something you want to correct me with? 2018-06-09 Athanasius restored original content	[reply]

What hippo was demonstrating in his example is that the `uri` filter encodes `<` and `>` quite fine. Does his test program succeed in your installation? If it doesn't, then there's something wrong in your TT installation. If it does, then you need to closely inspect the generated result of your TT process.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
