Creating a Custom Dialect

Creating a Custom Dialect

package TemplateX::Dialect::BBCode;

use base 'Template::TT3::Dialect';

our $TAGSET = [
    bold => {
        # ...
    },
    italic => {
        # ...
    },
    # ...
];

Thus Spake Andy:

We can take our tagset definition and create a dialect for it. If we put it in the TemplateX::Dialect::* namespace then TT3 will find it automatically (TemplateX is a new namespace for TT extension modules). We make it a subclass of Template::TT3::Dialect and define the tagset as the $TAGSET package variable.
