Combined Component Template Parser that reduces .wo components to
single .html files
For people who are used to Wonder's, this is not the same
implementation. With 5.4's template parser, there are a couple
notable differences:
1) 5.4 requires you to choose between using wod + html or inline.
You cannot mix and match within a single component like you can
with Wonder's WOOGNL parser.
2) 5.4 DEFAULT syntax is, for example, <wo:WOHyperlink action =
"[doSomething]"/> with brackets rather than $doSomething like
WOOGNL. However, there is a configuration setting to switch to
use $ if you'd like. WOLips supports parsing bracket-style as
well as offering completion for them.
3) The definition of which parser you use is an application
setting. This means that you cannot mix and match parsers among
frameworks. So if you want to use Wonder's parser, you cannot mix
it with 5.4's (and vice versa).
4) WOOGNL framework does not currently work with 5.4. I have a
5.4-compliant version ready, but due to some API changes, it
requires changes to the Project Wonder build system. Going
forward, we will at the very least have to have separate 5.3 and
5.4 builds of WOOGNL, and probably the nightly build server will
offer a separate complete 5.3/5.4 build. I don't know what the
timeframe is for addressing the build system issue. In the
meantime, I may just provide a custom build of WOOGNL for 5.4 that
is not updated automatically for now.
5) The new 5.4 parser requires valid XML template files.
Is there a recommended migration route from 5.3 style wod/html to
5.4 html ? is it a case of changing each and every component by hand ?
At the moment it's really an issue of testing and converting by hand
as you find problems. WOLips can probably identify many of the
errors, but there's no automatic fixes for them.
