Bug#203924: ITP: libxtemplate-ruby1.8 -- Lightweight XML templating engine like Amrita and XSLT
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
From homepage <URL:http://xtemplate.sourceforge.net/>:
XTemplate is a package of Ruby libraries and programs which formats
a XML/HTML document according to a Ruby's data structure which
consists of Hash and Array. This idea comes from Amrita. So we do
not need to explicitly write iterations like for-loop in a template.
Such iterations are indicated by an expansion data. We can specify
a data ID in XPath like expression, and reconstruct a given data in
a template without writing Ruby programs. This mechanism provides
interoperablity between a template and a Ruby script. We can use
XML/YAML documents as an expansion data, since it is automatically
converted to a Ruby's Hash object.
