All Known Implementing Classes:

TCDLDefaultTransformer, TCDLEngine, TCDLRenderer, TCDLTransformer, TCDLTransformer

public interface TCDLTagsProcessor

Interface to be implemented by transformers and renders of TCDL code. Tcdl transformers transform tcdl tags into language specific code. Tcdl renders actually execute the code inside tcdl tags.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	process(String itemURI, String input, Map<String,String> variablesMap, Writer target) Transforms or renders TCDL enabled content from the [input] String and writes the result to the [target].
void	setTargetLanguage(int languageId) Set the target language of the transformation.

Method Detail

process

void process(String itemURI,
             String input,
             Map<String,String> variablesMap,
             Writer target)
      throws ProcessingException

Transforms or renders TCDL enabled content from the [input] String and writes the result to the [target].

Note that when you call this method multiple times on the same instance, the same configuration and (programmatically) set properties will be used.

Parameters:

itemURI - uri of the item being transformed

input - TCDL enabled content

variablesMap - Map with variables to replace while parsing TCDL. Note that this is only used when rendering.

target - Writer to write output to

Throws:

ProcessingException - when the source could not be transformed

setTargetLanguage

void setTargetLanguage(int languageId)

Set the target language of the transformation. This is either a supported scripting language for derived from the DCP "output format" field (same way as ComponentPresentationAssembler does) or the target language of the publication. The possible values are defined in ProcessorInstructions.TARGET_LANGUAGE_XXX constants. NOTE: this makes sense only for transformations.

Parameters:

languageId - target language for the transformation.
