template

From Documentation

Syntax:

<template name="template-name" [src="URI"]
 [attr1="value1"] [attr2="value2"...] [if="if-condition"] [unless="unless-condition"]/>

It defines a template. A template is a ZUML fragment that defines how to create components. Once a ZUML document is interpreted, the template will be encapsulated as an instance of Template and associated to a component. Then, the component can create the components repeatedly based on the template by invoking Template.create(Component, Component, VariableResolver, Composer).

A component can be assigned with multiple templates. Each of them is identified by the name attribute.

<div>
    <template name="t1">
        <grid model="${foo}">
        ...
        </grid>
    </template>
    <template name="t2">
        <listbox model="${foo}">
        ...
        </listbox>
    </template>

How a template is used depends on the component it associates with and the tools you use. Currently, all components that support the concept of model allow you to specify a template for each item to render. For more information, please refer to ZK Developer's Reference: Template.

name

[Required]

Specifies the name of the template.

src

[Optional][Default: none]

Specifies the URI of the ZUML document that represents this template. If the src attribute is specified, its content will be loaded and interpreted as if they are specified inside the template element (right after the content specified directly inside it).

attr1

[Optional][Default: none]

Specifies a parameter that can be retrieved by use of Template.getParameters().

if

[Optional][Default: true]

Specifies the condition to evaluate this element. This element is ignored if the value specified to this attribute is evaluated to false.

unless

[Optional][Default: false]

Specifies the condition not to evaluate this element. This element is ignored if the value specified to this attribute is evaluated to true.
