Directly use renderString or renderFile

Render text as is without any variables 

renderString("Hello World!"); // Returns "Hello World!"

Render text with variables (Option 1 - Pass local variables) 

string name = "Jinja";
renderString!(name)("Hello {{ name }}!"); // Returns "Hello Jinja!"

Render text with variables (Option 2) 

JSONValue data;
data["name"] = "Jinja";
renderString("Hello {{ name }}!", data); // Returns "Hello Jinja!"

Render a file without any variables

index.html 

<h1>Hello World!</h1>

renderFile("index.html");

Render file with variables

index.html 

<h1>{{ title }}</h1>

Option1: Pass local variables 

auto title = "Hello Jinja!";
auto content = "....";
renderFile!(title, content)("index.html");

JSONValue data;
data["title"] = "Hello Jinja!";
data["content"] = "....";
renderFile("index.html", data);
Settings

onMissingkey 

// Default. Returns "Hello !"
renderString("Hello {{ name }}!", data, onMissingkey: MissingKey.empty);
renderFile("index.html", data, onMissingkey: MissingKey.empty);

// Returns "Hello {{ name }}!"
renderString("Hello {{ name }}!", data, onMissingkey: MissingKey.passThrough);
renderFile("index.html", data, onMissingkey: MissingKey.passThrough);

// Raises JinjaException
renderString("Hello {{ name }}!", data, onMissingkey: MissingKey.error);
renderFile("index.html", data, onMissingkey: MissingKey.error);

viewsDirectory 

renderFile("index.html", data, viewsDirectory: "./templates");

JSONValue data;
data["name"] = "Jinja";
tmpl.render(data);
Settings

auto tmpl1 = templateFromString("Hello {{ name }}!", onMissingkey: MissingKey.empty);
auto tmpl2 = templateFromFile("index.html", onMissingkey: MissingKey.empty);

viewsDirectory
