Template Engine

A Cocoa template engine based upon Django's templating engine.

Currently supported features:

• foreach loop statements: foreach x, y, z in points
• for loops: for 1 to 5
• if/else statements: if (x == y) and (y != z)
• variable assignment: let x := 7
• extends tag (for template inheritance): extends "base.html"
• block tag: for replacing blocks in parent template
• include tag: for including contents of another template file
• load tag: for loading additional tags and filters
• Math operations: +-*/
• Logical operators: and, or, not, ==, !=, <, >, <=, >=

Usage:

GFTemplate *template = [[GFTemplate alloc] initWithTemplatePath:@"/Some/path/to/file.txt"];
NSMutableDictionary *variables = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
// Add variables to the context dictionary here
[variables setObject:[NSNumber numberWithInteger:5] forKey:@"x"];
[variables setObject:[NSNumber numberWithInteger:-6] forKey:@"y"];
NSString *results = [template render:variables];
