views template error

[xiake999]

--views
   --home
      --header.html
   --index.html

index.html
{{template "home/header.html" .}}

head.html
test

html/template:index.html:5:11: no such template "home/header.html"

Yes, because the template function receives a template name, not a file name (see GoDoc of standard template package):

In index.html:

{{define "index"}}
	{{template "homeHeader" .}}
{{end}}

In head.html:

{{define "homeHeader"}}
	test
{{end}}

And to execute the index template:

app.Get("/", func(c *app.Context) {
	c.View("index")
})

The structure of the views directory has no importance: all files are recursively parsed and treated like a single file. Putting templates in their own files only serves readability.

It has been settled, thank you
