package html/template
ParseFiles parses the named files and associates the resulting templates with t. If an error occurs, parsing stops and the returned template is nil; otherwise it is t. There must be at least one file.
Golang html/template.Template.ParseFiles function usage examples
Example 1:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"html/template"
"os"
)
func main() {
t := template.New("HELLO")
var templates = template.Must(t.ParseFiles("defaultTemplate.html"))
data := map[string]interface{}{
"Title": "Hello World!",
}
templates.ExecuteTemplate(os.Stdout, "defaultTemplate.html", data)
fmt.Println("\n\n")
fmt.Println("Template name is : ", t.Name())
}
content of defaultTemplate.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>{{ .Title }}</title>
</head>
Output :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Hello World!</title>
</head>
Template name is : HELLO
Example 2:
var templates = template.Must(template.ParseFiles(
"header.html",
"index.html",
"apps/types.html",
"music.html", "tmpl/snips.tmpl",
"footer.html"))
