Spark View Engine

New Post: v1.7 Source

unforgiven1987 — Wed, 12 Dec 2012 18:50:14 GMT

I'm working with a multi-tenant mvc implementation by Zack Owen's...which uses Spark (https://github.com/zowens/Multi-tenancy-Sample). I'm trying to upgrade the codebase to use the latest of each of the dependencies, but am having issues when using the compiled Spark v1.7. If I download Master and include the project I have no issues, but if I reference the compiled DLL it seems to be having issues finding paths that have been loaded into the view cache. Is the source in the Master branch exactly what was compiled for this release?

Release Notes v1.7

It's time for another minor release bump in Spark as we begin to support a different kind of syntax called Jade. You can read up more about Jade at http://jade-lang.com/

To start using it, simply add a reference to Spark and start adding *.shade files to your project and as long as Spark is registered as a view engine, then it should automatically attempt Jade parsing to HTML. That of course, means that you can mix and match .spark and .shade files and the parser will work just fine with both of them. You can even create .shade partials that can be consumed by .spark views.

It should be noted that this is only the provisional support and point releases will be made as an when bugs are discovered to work out the kinks. If you find any issues, please don't hesitate to raise them on github preferably

This feature is very new, but for now you can see an example of Jade syntax usage in these places:

Some Razor views compared with Jade views: https://gist.github.com/2371061
Used on the OWIN/Gate project with Sake for builds: https://github.com/loudej/gate/tree/makefiles/src/build
The new Sake library (think make for C#) itself based upon the Spark View Engine: https://github.com/loudej/sake/tree/master/src/Sake.Library/Shared
The make file on the OWIN/gate project: https://github.com/loudej/gate/blob/makefiles/makefile.shade

Fixes included in v1.7.3 release:

Add IsOdd and IsEven to loop auto variables
Fix missing whitespace when using bindings
Implement optional attributes in bindings

Fixes included in v1.7.2 release:

Added support for the new "unless" conditional. If you're used to Ruby then you'll know about it, but if not, then simply consider it like an equivalent of "if not". This can be used as both an attribute on any node or as the node itself with a condition="foo" attribute to wrap any other nodes
Added support for .shade file location in MS MVC projects using default conventions.

Other fixes since the v1.6 release include:

JS compiler bug for toString() occasionally invoked on null and adding ~ to JS view paths
Bug fix for Area support in finding layouts

Updated Release: Spark v1.7 (Sep 09, 2012)

http://sparkviewengine.com/spark-in-the-field mentions CodeSaga, "a source code repository analyser, it makes viewing history logs fun and productive! Instant access to logs and diffs make it easy to keep track of what is happening in the repository.".
However, now CodeSaga is one of those generic blogs used for keyword spamming/SEO.
http://demo.codesaga.com/ is dead.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: mausch **

You could point the link to the source code repository at http://code.google.com/p/codesaga/ ... the project seems to be dead since 2008 though.
