Hi Kay,
I was able to get HTML wrapped using the Apache CMS last night. I'm not ready
to commit anything yet. I'll summarize where I am and possible next steps.
In order to make progress the key was investigating the source for the {% %}
template tagging. This is found here:
cms/build/lib/Dotiac/DTL/Tag
I changed view.pm to include an html_page procedure
In path.pm I added a pattern for html wrapping.
our @patterns = (
[qr!\.mdtext$!, single_narrative => { template =>
"single_narrative.html" }],
[qr!\.html$!, html_page => { template => "html_page.html" }],
) ;
The template html_page.html looks a lot like single_narrative.html but adds an
override to the content block.
{% extends "skeleton.html" %}
{% block content %}{% autoescape off %}{{ content }}{% endautoescape %}{%
endblock %}
We keep a single skeleton which is good.
Next steps are
- blocks for javascript and css insertion.
- controlling sidenav. The current html_page.html is not very good for the
pages that Carl modified in the download directory.
- header and footer framework
- online cms editing of html
- scripting of Kenai html into CMS compatible - stripping of headers and
extraction of javascript and css.
Regards,
Dave
