@defmodule["snippets-html.rkt" #:packages ()]
Each “snippet” module provides all the document- and article-level blocks of structural markup
necessary for a particular target output format; this one is for HTML. The idea is that any block of
markup that might be reused across more than one template should be a function.
The functions in the snippets modules follow two conventions in this project:
@itemlist[
@item{Functions that return strings of HTML have the prefix @tt{html$-}.}
@item{Such functions do not do any parsing or destructuring of complex objects; every separate
piece that will be inserted into the template is passed in as a separate argument. This makes it
harder to change the scope of what a snippet does, but makes things faster since all the parsing
can happen in one place, before the snippet functions are called.} ]
@section{Using @tt{pollen/mode}}
It’s worth looking at the source for this file to see how @racketmodname[pollen/mode] can be used to
make it easy to write “mini-template” functions:
@codeblock{
#lang pollen/mode racket/base
(define (html$-my-article title body-tx)
◊string-append{
<p><b>◊|title|</b><p>
◊(->html body-tx)
})
}
@section{HTML Snippet functions}
@defproc[(html$-page-head [title (or/c string? #f) #f]) non-empty-string?]
Returns the @tt{<head>} section of an HTML document.
@defproc[(html$-page-body-open) non-empty-string?]
Returns the opening @tt{<body>} and @tt{<main>} tags and elements that immediately follow, such as
site header, logo and navigation.
@defproc[(html$-article-open [title? boolean?] [title-html-flow string?] [pubdate string?])
non-empty-string?]
Returns the opening @tt{<article>} tag and elements that immediately follow: permlink, publish date,
and opening @tt{<section>} tag.
This function could be smarter, but for now @racket[_title?] determines which HTML markup structure
to use for the article regardless of whether @racket[_title-html-flow] is empty or not.
@defproc[(html$-article-close [footertext string?]) non-empty-string?]
Returns a string containing a closing @tt{<section>} tag, a @tt{<footer>} element containing
@racket[_footertext], and a closing @tt{<article>} tag. If @racket[_footertext] is empty, the
@tt{<footer>} element will be omitted.
@defproc[(html$-page-body-close) non-empty-string?]
Returns a string containing the page’s @tt{<footer>} and closing tags.
@defproc[(html$-note-title [author string?] [pagenode pagenode?] [parent-title string?])
non-empty-string?]
Returns a string containing the HTML for a note’s title. The title is used when the note is
displayed in a separate context from its parent article.
If @racket[_author] is empty, then @racket[default-authorname] is used. The @racket[_pagenode] and
@racket[_parent-title] values are for generating a link to the parent article.
@defproc[(html$-note-contents [disposition-mark string?] [elems (listof xexpr?)]) non-empty-string?]
Returns a string containing the body-elements of a note converted to HTML. If
@racket[_disposition-mark] is not empty, a @tt{<span>} containing it will be inserted as the first
element of the first block-level element.
@defproc[(html$-note-listing-full [pagenode pagenode?]
[note-id string?]
[title-html-flow string?]
[date string?]
[contents string?]
[author string? (default-authorname)]
[author-url string? ""])
non-empty-string?]
Returns a string containing the complete HTML markup for a @racket[note], including title, permlink,
date, contents and author, suitable for display outside the context of its parent article.
@defproc[(html$-note-in-article [id string?]
[date string?]
[contents string?]
[author string?]
[author-url string?]) non-empty-string?]
Like @racket[html$-note-listing-full], but returns HTML for a @racket[note] suitable for display
inside its parent article.
@defproc[(html$-notes-section [note-htmls string?]) non-empty-string?]
Returns the complete HTML for the @italic{Further Notes} section of an article.
