Output Escaping #16

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
At some point I need to start thinking about output escaping and how I would 
like to handle it.  Since JXTL is a general purpose language, I don't think I 
would like to build any pre-defined escapes into the language itself.

I think String Template has (as usual) done this correctly by allowing the user 
to write a custom formatter.  I will probably do the same.

Started added the functionality in revision 98.  I think the basic test will be 
to have the command line executable support things really basic, like uppercase 
and lowercase.

Now implemented in both the jxtl command line process and the Perl interface 
supports it too as of revision 108.

I want to enhance this a little more.  Right now only the string value is 
passed along with the name of the format.  In addition, it should pass the 
current JSON node so that another template could be expanded inside the format 
function.

The capability to specify multiple formats, or "chaining" them would definitely 
be a desirable feature as well.

Python now supports having the context node passed to it.  The only thing left 
for formatting is being able to specify multiple formats.
