  • Velocity Reference
    APPENDIX Velocity Reference VELOCITY HAS A WIDE RANGE of configuration settings, directives, and resource loaders. This appendix is a reference for aU aspects of Velocity configuration and usage. Introducing the Directives The following sections show the syntax for the standard directives included in the Velocity distribution. #set The #set directive assigns variables' values. These values can be a simple literal value or another variable. Syntax #set($variable=<literal value> I <variable_name» Example #set($myVar = "Hello World") Output The #set directive has no output. 347 Appendix #if/#else/#end The #if/#else/#end directives support conditional processing within your tem­ plates. The use of these directives is synonymous with the use of the if/else construct in Java. Syntax #if«boolean expression> I <boolean literal> I <boolean variable reference» Output for true #else Output for false #end Example #set($someVar = true) #if($someVar) Hello World! #else Goodbye Cruel World! #end Output Hello World! #foreach The #foreach directive iterates over all elements in a collection or an array and performs some processing for each element. Syntax #foreach($var in $collectionOrArray) ## do something with $var #end 348 Velocity Reference Example #foreach($num in [0 •• 5]) $num #end Output o 1 2 3 4 5 #include The #include directive includes some content from another resource in the out­ put stream. The content is added as-is with no processing by the Velocity engine. Syntax #import«resource_name» Example For example, the main template, template. vm, could contain the followingVfL code: Hello #include("world.txt") And an external file resource, world. txt, could contain the following static text: World Output Hello World 349 Appendix #parse The #parse directive functions in a similar manner to the #include directive; however, the external resource is first parsed by the Velocity engine, and any VTL constructs are processed as if they were part of the main template.
