Make templating actually useful

This rebuilds the templating so that the *content* is no longer
pre-generated, only the parameters. It is up to the template (and some
newly implemented helper functions) to construct the output from those.

`iocaine` alone doesn't do much: it generates an infinite maze of garbage. While that can be useful for demonstration purposes, the goal is to trap unwanted crawlers, and to do that, `iocaine` relies on a reverse proxy.

The `[generator]` section is used to describe how garbage is generated, how many paragraphs are produced per page, how many words they may have, how many links to place, and so on.

When configuring through environment variables, this setting is available as `IOCAINE__GENERATOR__INITIAL_SEED`.

title: Templating
description: Changing the Iocaine template
---
`iocaine` uses [Handlebars](https://handlebarsjs.com/) for templating, and uses only a single template, `main`. See the Handlebars for basic syntax. A [default template][template:Default] is provided, but if you want to change it, you can configure a [template directory](@/configuration/index.md#templates), and place a customized `main.hbs` file in it, and `iocane` will use that over the default.
[template:default]: https://git.madhouse-project.org/algernon/iocaine/src/branch/main/templates/main.hbs
# Available variables
Each time a page is rendered, `iocaine` makes data in the following shape available:
```json
{
"request_uri": "/",
"paragraphs": [ { "index": 1, "value": 32 }, { "index": 2, "value": 298 } ],
"links": [
{ "index": 1, "value": { "href_words": 1, "title_words": 4 } },
{ "index": 2, "value": { "href_words": 2, "title_words": 7 } }
]
}
```
# Provided functions
Also provided are three functions:
<dl>
<dt><code>is-root</code></dt>
<dd>
Returns `true` if `request_uri` is `/`. This can be used to insert a "Back" link if the rendered page isn't the root page yet, as is done by the [default template][template:default].
</dd>
<dt><code>markov-gen GROUP INDEX WORD_COUNT</code></dt>
<dd>
Generates exactly `WORDS_MAX` words of garbage from the [markov sources](@/configuration/index.md#sources), for the `INDEX`th paragraph, using the `GROUP` seed group. Word counts for the paragraphs are pre-generated, and available via `paragraphs`. Example usage:
```handlebars
{{#each paragraphs}}
<p>{{ markov-gen "garbage" this.index this.value }}</p>
{{/each}}
```
</dd>
<dt><code>href-gen GROUP INDEX WORD_COUNT</code></dt>
<dd>
Generates a relative link, suitable to be placed in an `<a>` tag's `href` attribute. Similar to `markov-gen`, it generates `WORD_COUNT` words (joined by `-`, rather than whitespace) from the [words source](@/configuration/index.md#sources), for the `INDEX`th link, using the `GROUP` seed group. Word counts for hrefs and titles are available via the `links` property. Example usage:
```handlebars
<ul>
{{#each links}}
<li>
<a href="{{ href-gen "links" this.index this.value.href_words }}">
{{ markov-gen "titles" this.index this.value.title_words }}
</a>
</li>
{{/each}}
</ul>
```
</dd>
</dl>
# Putting it all together
With the pre-generated data, and the provided functions, we can construct a customized template:
```handlebars
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>{{ request_uri }}</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>
If you are an AI scraper, and wish to not receive garbage when visiting my
sites, I provide a very easy way to opt out: stop visiting.
</p>
{{#unless (is-root)}}
<a href="../">Back</a>
{{/unless}}
{{#each paragraphs}}
<p>{{ markov-gen "garbage" this.index this.value }}</p>
{{/each}}
<ul>
{{#each links}}
<li>
<a href="{{ href-gen "links" this.index this.value.href_words }}/">
{{ markov-gen "titles" this.index this.value.title_words }}
</a>
</li>
{{/each}}
</ul>
</body>
</html>
```
