Mustache

C++ implementation of Mustache as a PHP extension. See Mustache

Features

All features of Mustache are supported EXCEPT:

• Lambda functions
• Whitespace rules. All whitespace is kept as it is in the input template.

Installation

Install libmustache

Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install git-core php5-dev
git clone git://github.com/jbboehr/php-mustache.git --recursive
cd php-mustache
phpize
./configure --enable-mustache
make
sudo make install
echo extension=mustache.so | sudo tee /etc/php5/conf.d/mustache.ini

Windows:

• Get a Mustache Windows Build
• Place into your PHP extension directory and add extension=php_mustache.dll to your php.ini

Note: these pass all of the tests, but may or may not be production safe.

Usage

Example:

<?php
$mustache = new Mustache();
$tmpl = <<<EOF
Hello {{name}}
You have just won {{value}} dollars!
{{#in_ca}}
Well, {{taxed_value}} dollars, after taxes.
{{/in_ca}}
EOF;
$data = array(
  'name' => 'John',
  'value' => 10000,
  'taxed_value' => 10000 * 0.6,
  'in_ca' => true,
);
$partials = array();
echo $mustache->render($tmpl, $data, $partials);

Produces:

Hello John
You have just won 10000 dollars!

Well, 6000 dollars, after taxes.

Example 2:

<?php
$mustache = new Mustache();
$tmpl = $mustache->compile('{{var}}');
$data = new MustacheData(array('var' => 'val'));
for( $i = 0; $i < 5; $i++ ) {
  echo $mustache->execute($tmpl, $data);
}

Produces:

valvalvalvalval

Todo

• Fix whitespace non-conformity
• Cache compiled templates in memory

Compiling on Windows

• Need to add msinttypes to your include directory.
• See Build your own PHP on Windows. Note: SetEnv.cmd is not always in the path, mine was in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Bin\SetEnv.cmd and needed to be modified (modified version is in the win32 folder in this repository)
• Place sources into the ext directory (e.g. C:\php-sdk\php53dev\vc9\x86\php5.3-xyz\ext\mustache)
• configure --enable-mustache=shared ... or configure --enable-mustache ... to compile it into PHP. If compiling it as shared, make sure --enable-zts matches the version you have installed.
• nmake

To run the tests for the shared extension, add extension=C:\php-sdk\php53\vc9\x86\php5.3-xyz\Release\php_mustache.dll to C:\php-sdk\php53\vc9\x86\php5.3-xyz\Release\php.ini then run nmake test TESTS=ext\mustache\tests\* (replace Release with Release_TS if thread safety is enabled)
