Hot is a library for rendering hot golang templates. This means with hot you won't need to reload your application everytime you edit your templates.Hot watches for file changes in your templates directory and reloads everytime you make changes to your files.
hot renders go templates using html/template package.
go get github.com/gernest/hot
Just pass the configuration object to hot.New
package main
import (
"os"
"github.com/gernest/hot"
)
func main() {
config := &hot.Config{
Watch: true,
BaseName: "hot",
Dir: "fixtures",
FilesExtension: []string{".tpl", ".html", ".tmpl"},
}
tpl, err := hot.New(config)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// execute the template named "hello.tpl
tpl.Execute(os.Stdout, "hello.tpl", nil)
}Note that the fixtures directory should exist and there is a template file hello.tpl in it , hot will be watching any changes to the files inside this directory.
The hot.Config object is used to configure the hot template
