I try to use martini framework with layout template:
package main
import (
"github.com/go-martini/martini"
"github.com/martini-contrib/render"
)
func main() {
m := martini.Classic()
m.Use(render.Renderer(render.Options{Directory: "./templates",
Layout: "layout",
Extensions: []string{".tmpl"},
}))
m.Get("/", func(r render.Render) {
r.HTML(200, "mainPage", map[string]interface{}{"Title": "some title", "H1": "some h1"})
})
m.Run()
}
In the same folder as this main.go file I got folder templates with layout.tmpl file:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"></html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div id='left'>
{{template "left" .}}
</div>
<div id='right'>
{{template "right" .}}
</div>
</body>
and mainPage.tmpl file:
{{define "left"}}
left content
{{end}}
{{define "right"}}
right content
{{end}}
When I open http://localhost:3000/ in browser I see error:
html/template: "layout" is undefined
My problem was that I run
gofile from random directory. To solve it I changed directory (cd) to parent oftemplatesfolder.
