Primitive Wrapper for Apache Velocity
VelocityPage is a convenient builder/wrapper around Apache Velocity:
import com.jcabi.velocity.VelocityPage;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String text = new VelocityPage("/com/foo/template.vm")
.set("name", "John Doe")
.set("file", file)
.set("document", doc)
.toString();
}
}The only argument of the constructor should be an absolute path of a classpath resource that contains a Velocity template. Be aware that an absolute resource path always starts with a slash.
The only dependency you need is (you can also download jcabi-velocity-0.10.0.jar and add it to the classpath):
<dependency> <groupId>com.jcabi</groupId> <artifactId>jcabi-velocity</artifactId> <version>0.10.0</version> </dependency>
