Templating
Learn how to render content using your favorite templating engine.
In general, if a library can return a String or a Vec<u8>, you can use it to generate pages with Maudit.
Through crate features, Maudit includes built-in helper methods and traits implementation for popular templating libraries.
Maud
Maudit implements Into<RenderResult> for the Maud Markup type, allowing one to directly return Maud's templates from a route's render method.
use maud::{html, Markup};
use maudit::route::prelude::*;
#[route("/")]
pub struct Index;
impl Route for Index {
fn render(&self, _: &mut PageContext) -> impl Into<RenderResult> {
html! {
h1 { "Hello, world!" }
}
}
}
Maudit implements the Render trait for images, scripts and styles, allowing one to use them directly in Maud templates.
use maud::{html, Markup};
use maudit::route::prelude::*;
#[route("/")]
pub struct Index;
impl Route for Index {
fn render(&self, ctx: &mut PageContext) -> impl Into<RenderResult> {
let style = ctx.add_style("style.css");
let image = ctx.add_image("logo.png");
html! {
(style) // Will render to a <link> tag for the CSS file
(image.render("The logo of my product")) // Will render to an <img> tag for the image
}
}
}
To use Maud with Maudit, install Maud into your project by adding it to your Cargo.toml, or running cargo add maud.

maud = "0.27"
The maud feature is enabled by default. If you have disabled default features, you can enable it manually by editing your Cargo.toml:
maudit = { version = "...", features = ["maud"] }
