GRMustache Release Notes

You can compare the performances of GRMustache versions at https://github.com/groue/GRMustacheBenchmark.

v5.4.1

Fix some corner cases in the handling of overridable partials, should your templates include conflicting overriding sections. Basically, the last one wins:

{{<layout}} {{$content}}Not rendered{{/content}} {{$content}}Rendered{{/content}} {{/layout}}.

v5.4.0

Support for templates and partials stored in a hierarchy of directories

When your templates are stored in a hierarchy of directories, you need to refer to partial templates in both relative and absolute ways, depending on the context.

Your variable tag helpers and your section tag helpers will typically use absolute paths, in order to always include the same partial template, regardless of the hierarchical position of the templates that use them.

Relative partial paths look like regular Mustache partial tags: {{> header }}, {{> partials/header }}.

GRMustache v5.4.0 brings absolute paths, that start with a slash: {{> /path/to/partial }}.

The full story starts at Guides/partials.md.

v5.3.0

API cleanup

The introduction of variable tag helpers in v5.1.0 introduced many confusing APIs. Those are still there, but deprecated.

No new feature has been added, but semantics have been much improved. Many thanks to @pierlo for his help.

Helpers API changes

GRMustacheVariableTagHelper replaces GRMustacheVariableHelper. See Guides/variable_tag_helpers.md.

@protocol GRMustacheVariableTagHelper<NSObject>
@required
- (NSString *)renderForVariableTagInContext:(GRMustacheVariableTagRenderingContext *)context;
@end

@interface GRMustacheVariableTagRenderingContext : NSObject
- (NSString *)renderTemplateString:(NSString *)string error:(NSError **)outError;
- (NSString *)renderTemplateNamed:(NSString *)name error:(NSError **)outError;
@end

GRMustacheSectionTagHelper replaces GRMustacheSectionHelper. See Guides/section_tag_helpers.md.

@protocol GRMustacheSectionTagHelper<NSObject>
@required
- (NSString *)renderForSectionTagInContext:(GRMustacheSectionTagRenderingContext *)context;
@end

@interface GRMustacheSectionTagRenderingContext: NSObject
@property (nonatomic, readonly) NSString *innerTemplateString;
- (NSString *)render;
- (NSString *)renderTemplateString:(NSString *)string error:(NSError **)outError;
@end

GRMustacheTemplateDelegate API changes

In the GRMustacheInterpretation enumeration, GRMustacheSectionTagInterpretation replaces GRMustacheInterpretationSection, and GRMustacheVariableTagInterpretation replaces GRMustacheInterpretationVariable.

GRMustacheTemplate API changes

[GRMustacheTemplate renderObjectsFromArray:] and [GRMustacheTemplate renderObjectsFromArray:withFilters:] replace [GRMustacheTemplate renderObjectsInArray:] and [GRMustacheTemplate renderObjectsInArray:withFilters:].

v5.2.0

Overridable partials

Inspired by hogan.js and spullara/mustache.java, GRMustache now supports "template inheritance". Precisely, your templates can embed as many partials as before, but now you can override portions of those partials.

Overridable partials are documented as Guides/partials.md.

The layout sample code has been updated to take profit of overridable partials. There is not much left of it :-).

v5.1.0

Dropped support for armv6

libGRMustache5-iOS.a is now compiled with Xcode 4.5, and does not longer embed the armv6 slice.

For armv6 support, use GRMustache 5.0.1.

Array rendering

The Mustache specification does not specify how a collection of objects should be rendered. For instance, the rendering of {{items}} is unspecified if items is an array.

GRMustache 5.1 renders an array as the concatenation of the rendering of its individual items.

This makes GRMustache able to render {{items}} just as Ruby on Rails renders <%= render @items %>. Keep on reading.

Variable helpers and dynamic partials

The library was missing support for "Mustache variable lambdas", that let you execute code when rendering a plain {{variable}} tag.

Support for variable lambdas is there now, through the GRMustacheVariableHelper protocol.

Variable helpers are the base for "dynamic partials", that is to say the ability to defer the choice of a template partial until the actual rendering. Now your context objects can choose which partial should be rendered.

Variable helpers can also help objects being able to "render themselves", and have {{item}} and {{items}} rendering controlled by these items themselves.

All of those new features are documented at Guides/variable_helpers.md.

New APIs:

// The name of exceptions raised whenever the rendering could not be completed.
extern NSString * const GRMustacheRenderingException;

// Base protocol for "variable lambdas".
@protocol GRMustacheVariableHelper<NSObject>
@required
- (NSString *)renderVariable:(GRMustacheVariable *)variable;
@end

// Convenience class in order to avoid implementing a full class that conforms
// to the GRMustacheVariableHelper protocol
@interface GRMustacheVariableHelper: NSObject<GRMustacheVariableHelper>
+ (id)helperWithBlock:(NSString *(^)(GRMustacheVariable* variable))block;
@end

// Convenience class for building variable helpers that render the content of a
// template partial.
@interface GRMustacheDynamicPartial: NSObject<GRMustacheVariableHelper>
+ (id)dynamicPartialWithName:(NSString *)name;
@end

// Allows you to implement variable helpers through the GRMustacheVariableHelper
// protocol.
@interface GRMustacheVariable : NSObject
- (NSString *)renderTemplateString:(NSString *)string error:(NSError **)outError;
- (NSString *)renderTemplateNamed:(NSString *)name error:(NSError **)outError;
@end

// This protocol is identical to the deprecated GRMustacheHelper protocol.
@protocol GRMustacheSectionHelper<NSObject>
@required
- (NSString *)renderSection:(GRMustacheSection *)section;
@end

// This class is identical to the deprecated GRMustacheHelper class.
@interface GRMustacheSectionHelper: NSObject<GRMustacheSectionHelper>
+ (id)helperWithBlock:(NSString *(^)(GRMustacheSection* section))block;
@end

Deprecated APIs:

// Use GRMustacheRenderingException instead
extern NSString * GRMustacheFilterException;

// Use GRMustacheSectionHelper protocol instead
@protocol GRMustacheHelper
@end

// Use GRMustacheSectionHelper class instead
@interface GRMustacheHelper
@end

v5.0.1

Bug fixes:

Section delegates used not to be given the rendered template as expected.
Helpers used not to be able to render partial templates when rendering alternate template strings.

v5.0.0

Performance improvements, and fix for flaws in the GRMustacheDelegate API.

Besides the removal of already deprecated methods, the changes introduced in this version are very unlikely to introduce incompatibilities in your code:

Dropped support for iOS3.
Before v5.0.0, template delegates could know that the value Arthur was provided by the key name when the tag {{name}} is rendered. Delegates are now only provided with the value.
Before v5.0.0, a tag containing a filter expression like {{uppercase(name)}} would have a template delegate invoked with the raw Arthur value, not the filter result: ARTHUR. In v5.0.0, delegate callbacks are given always given the value GRMustache is about to render.

Removed APIs:

@interface GRMustacheInvocation : NSObject
// Removed without deprecation warning
@property (nonatomic, readonly) NSString *key;
@end

@interface GRMustacheSection: NSObject
// Deprecated in v4.3.0
@property (nonatomic, retain, readonly) id renderingContext;
@end

@interface GRMustacheTemplate: NSObject
// Deprecated in v4.3.0
- (NSString *)renderObjects:(id)object, ...;
@end

// Removed without deprecation warning
GRMustacheInterpretationFilterArgument // was part of the GRMustacheInterpretation enum.

@protocol GRMustacheTemplateDelegate<NSObject>
// Deprecated in v4.1.0
- (void)template:(GRMustacheTemplate *)template willRenderReturnValueOfInvocation:(GRMustacheInvocation *)invocation;
- (void)template:(GRMustacheTemplate *)template didRenderReturnValueOfInvocation:(GRMustacheInvocation *)invocation;
@end

v4.3.4

Restored compatibility with iOS3 and OSX6 (thanks @Bertrand).

v4.3.3

Fix a memory leak.

v4.3.2

Bugfix: Avoid the default valueForKey: implementation of Fundation collection classes like NSArray, NSSet and NSOrderedSet, which would return another collection. Fixes issue #21.

v4.3.1

Bugfix: this release restores the delegate callbacks while rendering alternate template strings in helpers.

v4.3.0

Filters

Filters allow you to process values before they are rendered, and supersede "section delegates" as the preferred way to filter values. The number formatting and array indexes.md sample codes have been updated accordingly.

New APIs:

@interface GRMustacheSection: NSObject
- (NSString *)renderTemplateString:(NSString *)string error:(NSError **)outError;
@end

@interface GRMustacheTemplate: NSObject
+ (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object withFilters:(id)filters fromString:(NSString *)templateString error:(NSError **)outError;
+ (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object withFilters:(id)filters fromContentsOfFile:(NSString *)path error:(NSError **)outError;
+ (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object withFilters:(id)filters fromContentsOfURL:(NSURL *)url error:(NSError **)outError;
+ (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object withFilters:(id)filters fromResource:(NSString *)name bundle:(NSBundle *)bundle error:(NSError **)outError;
+ (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object withFilters:(id)filters fromResource:(NSString *)name withExtension:(NSString *)ext bundle:(NSBundle *)bundle error:(NSError **)outError;
- (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object withFilters:(id)filters;
- (NSString *)renderObjectsInArray:(NSArray *)objects;
- (NSString *)renderObjectsInArray:(NSArray *)objects withFilters:(id)filters;
@end

Deprecated APIs:

@interface GRMustacheSection: NSObject
// Use renderTemplateString:error: instead.
@property (nonatomic, retain, readonly) id renderingContext;
@end

@interface GRMustacheTemplate: NSObject
// Use renderObjectsInArray: instead.
- (NSString *)renderObjects:(id)object, ...;
@end

v4.2.0

Section delegates

When an object that is attached to a Mustache section conforms to the GRMustacheDelegate protocol, it can observe and alter the rendering of the inner content of the section, just like the template's delegate.

This provides you with a better way to encapsulate behaviors that, with previous versions of GRMustache, would bloat the one and only delegate of a template.

Section delegates are used in the number formatting sample code, where the NSNumberFormatter class is given the opportunity to render formatted numbers.

v4.1.1

Total inline documentation

Headers contain documentation for every exposed API.

An online reference, automatically generated from inline documentation by appledoc can be read at http://groue.github.com/GRMustache/Reference/.

v4.1.0

GRMustacheDelegate protocol

A template's delegate is now able to know how a value will be interpreted by GRMustache.

New APIs:

typedef enum {
    GRMustacheInterpretationSection,
    GRMustacheInterpretationVariable,
} GRMustacheInterpretation;

@protocol GRMustacheTemplateDelegate<NSObject>
- (void)template:(GRMustacheTemplate *)template willInterpretReturnValueOfInvocation:(GRMustacheInvocation *)invocation as:(GRMustacheInterpretation)interpretation;
- (void)template:(GRMustacheTemplate *)template didInterpretReturnValueOfInvocation:(GRMustacheInvocation *)invocation as:(GRMustacheInterpretation)interpretation;
@end

Deprecated APIs:

@protocol GRMustacheTemplateDelegate<NSObject>
- (void)template:(GRMustacheTemplate *)template willRenderReturnValueOfInvocation:(GRMustacheInvocation *)invocation;
- (void)template:(GRMustacheTemplate *)template didRenderReturnValueOfInvocation:(GRMustacheInvocation *)invocation;
@end

GRMustacheDelegate is documented in Guides/delegate.md.

GRMustacheTemplateRepositoryDataSource protocol

The return type of -[GRMustacheTemplateRepositoryDataSource templateRepository:templateIDForName:relativeToTemplateID:] as changed from id to id<NSCopying>.

GRMustacheTemplateRepositoryDataSource is documented in Guides/template_repositories.md.

Errors

GRMustache used to output badly formatted errors. They are now easier to read.

v4.0.0

Zero numbers are false

GRMustache now considers all NSNumber instances whose boolValue is NO as false, when considering whether a section should render or not.

Previously, GRMustache used to consider only [NSNumber numberWithBool:NO] as false.

This change lets you extend the mustache language with proxy objects (objects that implement language extensions, and forward other keys to some other object) in GRMustache rendering.

See Guides/sample_code/indexes.md for a discussion on proxy objects.

Total NSUndefinedException swallowing

Whenever GRMustache performs some key lookup and valueForKey: raises a NSUndefinedException, GRMustache swallows it and keep on looking for the key up the context stack.

Previously, GRMustache used to swallow only exceptions that explicitely came from the inquired object, and for the inquired key.

This change lets you extend the mustache language with proxy objects (objects that implement language extensions, and forward other keys to some other object) in GRMustache rendering.

See Guides/sample_code/indexes.md for a discussion on proxy objects.

Support for `.name` keys

Keys prefixed by a dot prevent GRMustache to look up the context stack.

Beware this feature is not in the mustache specification. If your goal is to design templates that remain compatible with other Mustache implementations, don't use this syntax.

See issue #19 and mustache/spec#10.

v3.0.1

Restored intended architectures: armv6+armv7+i386 for libGRMustache3-iOS, i386+x86_64 for libGRMustache3-MacOS.

v3.0.0

There is no option

Removed APIs:

enum {
    GRMustacheTemplateOptionNone,
    GRMustacheTemplateOptionStrictBoolean
};

typedef NSUInteger GRMustacheTemplateOptions;

@interface GRMustacheTemplate: NSObject {
+ (id)templateFromString:(NSString *)templateString options:(GRMustacheTemplateOptions)options error:(NSError **)outError;

GRMustache1 used to parse and interpret Handlebars tags such as {{../foo/bar}}. GRMustache2 does no longer parse those tags.

GRMustache1 used to parse and interpret this identifier is tags such as {{this.foo}}. GRMustache2 does no longer parse the this identifier.

GRMustache1 used to look for implementations of the localizeSection:inContext: selector when rendering a {{#localize}}...{{/localize}} section. GRMustache2 relies on the GRMustacheHelper protocol only when rendering Mustache lambda sections.

Bug fixes around the NSUndefinedKeyException handling when the DEBUG macro is set (thanks to Mike Ash).

v1.5.2

The DEBUG macro makes GRMustache raise much less NSUndefinedKeyException (see the Avoid the NSUndefinedKeyException attack wiki page).

v1.5.1

Bug fixes

v1.5.0

API simplification

New GRMustacheTemplate method:

New class:

GRMustacheBlockHelper

Deprecated class (use id instead when refering to a context, and use renderObjects: methods instead of instanciating one):

GRMustacheContext

Deprecated function (use GRMustacheBlockHelper instead):

id GRMustacheLambdaBlockMake(NSString *(^block)(GRMustacheSection*, GRMustacheContext*));

v1.4.0

iOS 3.0 support

New GRMustacheTemplate methods:

+ (NSString *)renderObject:(id)object fromContentsOfFile:(NSString *)path error:(NSError **)outError;
