please implement localization (different separators)

Also the CPAN module

Template::Plugin::Comma

can be used for doing this.

Subject: [Catalyst] TT VMethods


Today I saw how easy it is to extend Template-Toolkit within Catalyst. Perhaps somebody here will find this useful.

I wanted to easily format dollar amounts from within the tt2 template. I had been doing this with [% FILTER format( "%.2f" ) %], but having FILTER/END everywhere seemed a bit annoying, and I wanted to add commas to make the data easier to read on large numbers.

In Catalyst, you can add extensions to Template from your app's lib directory. You can add filters ( Template::Plugin::Filter ) and VMethods ( Template::Plugin::VMethods ) simply by putting them into MyApp/lib/Template/Plugin

Following is an example that adds a 'commify' method to any scalar template variable. [% var.commify %] to add seperating commas, [% var.commify(2) %] to add commas and round to two decimal places

#MyApp/lib/Template/Plugin/commify.pm
package Template::Plugin::commify;

use Template::Plugin::VMethods;
use base qw(Template::Plugin::VMethods);
@SCALAR_OPS = qw(commify);

=head1 commify

VMethod extension to format a number with pretty commas each 3rd digit,
  and to specify decimal precision

  Template Syntax:
  [% USE commify %]
  [% test = '1234567890.983457' %]
  [% test.commify    %] 1,234,567,890.983457
  [% test.commify(2) %] 1,234,567,890.98

=cut

sub commify {
  my ( $data, $precision ) = @_;
  my $decimals;

  # don't do anything to the data if it doesn't look like a number
  return $data
      if $data !~ /^\d+(?:\.\d+)$/;

  # round to the specified precision
  $data = sprintf "%.${precision}f", $data
      if defined $precision;

  # detach the decimals, we don't want commas there
  $decimals = $1 if $data =~ s/(\.\d+)//;

  # insert commas
  $data =~ s/(\d{1,3})(?=(?:\d\d\d)+(?!\d))/$1,/g;

  # reattach decimals
  $data .= $decimals if defined $decimals;

  $data;
}

1;
