I had the following problem: I have a service where I want to dynamically render templates using qute. Whose names I don't currently know (because they are passed via the endpoint). Unfortunately Quarkus itself doesn't give the possibility to say "Template t = new Template()".... You always have to define them via inject at the beginning of a class. After a long time of searching and thinking about it, I have the following solution:
The solution is to inject the Quarkus Template Engine instead of a Template. The Engine could render a template directly.... Then we only have to read our template file as a String (Java 11 can read Files.readString(path, encoding)) and render it with our data map.
@Path("/api")
public class YourResource {
public static final String TEMPLATE_DIR = "/templates/";
@Inject
Engine engine;
@POST
public String loadTemplateDynamically(String locale, String templateName, Map<String, String> data) {
File currTemplate = new File(YourResource.class.getResource("/").getPath() + TEMPLATE_DIR + locale + "/" + templateName + ".html"); // this generates a String like <yourResources Folder> + /templates/<locale>/<templateName>.html
try {
Template t = engine.parse(Files.readString(currTemplate.getAbsoluteFile().toPath(), StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
//this render your data to the template... you also could specify it
return t.data(data.render());
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return "template not exists";
}
}
