Mustache templates implementation in pure c

Overview

mustache-c is a basic implementation of mustache templating in pure C.

Features

Supported:

• Sleek pure C API
• Prerendering for better speed
• Sections and variables

Not supported:

• Partials
• HTML escaping
• Custom delimiters

Installation

Simply use the configure script to compile and install mustache-c:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr
$ make
$ sudo make install

mustache-c requires flex, bison and reasonable modern C library that provides stdint.h. If you wish to build the doxygen documentation you will also need doxygen.

mustache-c provides a pkg-config file with which you can determine libraries and include paths:

$ pkg-config --libs mustache_c-1.0
$ pkg-config --cflags mustache_c-1.0

This also allows mustache-c to be picked up by cmake:

FIND_PACKAGE(PkgConfig)
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(MUSTACHEC REQUIRED mustache_c-1.0)

Usage

There is a test program available in the source which shows the basic usage of mustache-c.

API Documentation

See this link for the Doxygen documentation of the API.

mustache-c's Issues

can you provide example installation and usage guide?

can you provide example installation and usage guide? thanks

const awareness in API

Some functions signatures would benefit from having some of their parameters declared const. These include:

• buffer in mustache_api_write
• error in mustache_api_error

It is especially important (imho) for write, as sometimes you have to explicitly cast the const away on static buffers when calling write as seen here.

This breaks API, as existing code that already casts will break; but it would make code overall cleaner. ABI is not broken.

I wanted to bring this up in an issue first before making a merge request for it. What do you think?
