Building out HTML documents in Go can be a pain sometimes. Sure there is the
html/template package, but what about something with a bit more style to it?
HTMG is the Hyper-Text Markup Generator for Go that provides chainable functions
allowing for the creation of dynamic DOM documents. It provides direct
implementations for the io.Writer and io.StringWriter interfaces so you can
pipe the generated code directly to your favorite output.
Check out the repository here!
Install using go get -u github.com/novafex/htmg and give it a try. There are
examples for you to check, or just use this one...
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/novafex/htmg"
)
func main() {
// Build a tree
doc := htmg.NewElem("html", htmg.NewAttr("lang", "en")).Append(
htmg.NewElemWithChildren(
"body",
htmg.NewElem("h1").Append(
htmg.NewText("Hello, World!"),
),
htmg.NewText("I'm HTMG from Novafex"),
),
)
doc.Write(os.Stdout)
// <html lang="en"><body><h1>Hello, World!</h1>I'm HTMG from Novafex</body></html>
}Why does it say "Novafex" here? Because Novafex is also me.
