Mustache VS Tilt

Mustache is used mainly for mobile and web applications, it has a very big community as its the most popular JavaScript template engine means that if you face any error on Mustache then its solutions are easily available and along with that it is Open source its Github repository name is https://github.com/Mustache/Mustache

Please don’t do this. Use a templating system like mustache https://github.com/mustache/mustache. It’s easier for your users and doesn’t expose the entire system to them. I generally use this in conjunction with markdown.

I recently had to generate multiple configuration files for Apache httpd server. My first choice was Apache Module mod_macro, however, it has too many limitations. My second choice was to use mustache templates and I was super excited that it is also available in bash! Everything seems great until I attempted to use arrays, and it did not work. Most likely because it was implemented for Bash 3.x which is 10 years old. I did not want to mess with my environment by adding or switching to older version of Bash. Because Scala is my weapon of choice, I decided for my third attempt, to try solving this problem using Scala and Twirl templating engine. I know it might seem like an overkill, however, my previous choices have failed me, so I wanted my next attempt to be the final one! 😎

The built-in view templates use Tilt's interpolated string engine, which avoids ERB dependency, but requires work to adapt for Rails. So, rodauth-rails' views generator imports already converted ERB view templates that use familiar Rails' form helpers.

If you want people using Rails to use this, turn it into a gem, and use Tilt to make it an actual template language. Generating ERB and saving it to disk like that is a terrible plan for a Rails app. Good idea for a static site generator, like Jekyll, but absolutely a terrible idea for Rails.

Cuba takes help from a lot of other technologies to bring the best of everything. For example, the responses in Cuba are the optimized version of the Rack responses. The templates are integrated via Tilt and testing via Cutest and Capybara.
