FreeMarker is a java based template engine for complex template processing.
This requires the library freemarker-2.3.16.jar to be in classpath.
The following example shows accessing bean properties.
package com.bethecoder.tutorials.freemarker.common; public class Student { private String name; private int age; private String hobby; public Student () { } public Student ( String name, int age, String hobby ) { super () ; this .name = name; this .age = age; this .hobby = hobby; } public String getName () { return name; } public void setName ( String name ) { this .name = name; } public int getAge () { return age; } public void setAge ( int age ) { this .age = age; } public String getHobby () { return hobby; } public void setHobby ( String hobby ) { this .hobby = hobby; } public String toString () { return "Student[name = " + name + ", age = " + age + ", hobby = " + hobby + "]" ; } }
package com.bethecoder.tutorials.freemarker.tests; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.OutputStreamWriter; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map; import com.bethecoder.tutorials.freemarker.common.Student; import freemarker.template.Configuration; import freemarker.template.Template; import freemarker.template.TemplateException; public class PropertiesTest { /** * @param args * @throws IOException * @throws TemplateException */ public static void main ( String [] args ) throws IOException, TemplateException { //Get template from classpath Configuration cfg = new Configuration () ; cfg.setClassForTemplateLoading ( PropertiesTest.class, "/" ) ; Template template = cfg.getTemplate ( "props.ftl" ) ; //Prepare data model Map<String, Object> dataModel = new HashMap<String, Object> () ; dataModel.put ( "std" , new Student ( "Sriram" , 2 , "Chess" )) ; //Merge template and data OutputStreamWriter output = new OutputStreamWriter ( System.out ) ; template.process ( dataModel, output ) ; } }
