NAME

Template::Plugin::Text::Greeking - Text::Greeking interface in Template

VERSION

This document describes Template::Plugin::Text::Greeking version 0.0.1

SYNOPSIS

In your template code.

    [% USE Text::Greeking %]

    <div id="info">
      [% Text.Greeking() %]
    </div>

DESCRIPTION

This module provides Text::Greeking in your template code. Why is it useful at all ? When you're still in design phrase of a template, this is very useful to fill out your page so you can grok a overall feeling. And you will be able to generate lipsums in different length so that it can even be used for testing purpsose. (Visual testing, which requires human testers to tell if it's successful.)

INTERFACE

new()

This is the constructor. Which allows users to write

    [% Text.Greeking() %]

in template code.

When doing so, you may pass the several parameters to tweak greeking class' output. Such as:

    [% Text.Greeking(paragraphs => [1,5]) %]

The available options keys are "words", "sentences", and "paragraphs". The value to these 3 keys should be an array (in the notation of array ref) of 2 numbers. The first number means the minium, the second of maximum. The example above is just the same as:

    my $greeing = Text::Greeking->new;
    $greeking->paragraphs(1,5);

Additionally, you may use alternative greeking classes in different languages. So far the only alternative option is Chinese. In this case you would say:

    [% Text.Greeking(lang => "zh_TW") %]

To use Text::Greeking::zh_TW to generate Chinese lipsums.
