Golang模板中的变量

Question

What is the namespace of variables inside html/text templates? I thought that a variable $x can change value inside a template, but this example shows me that I cannot.

I failed when I tried to group tournaments according year - something like this (http://play.golang.org/p/EX1Aut_ULD):

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"
    "text/template"
    "time"
)

func main() {
    tournaments := []struct {
        Place string
        Date  time.Time
    }{
        // for clarity - date is sorted, we don't need sort it again
        {"Town1", time.Date(2015, time.November, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.Local)},
        {"Town2", time.Date(2015, time.October, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.Local)},
        {"Town3", time.Date(2014, time.November, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.Local)},
    }
    t, err := template.New("").Parse(`
{{$prev_year:=0}}
{{range .}}
    {{with .Date}}
        {{$year:=.Year}}
                    {{if ne $year $prev_year}}
                        Actions in year {{$year}}:
                {{$prev_year:=$year}}
            {{end}}
    {{end}}

        {{.Place}}, {{.Date}}
    {{end}}

    `)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    err = t.Execute(os.Stdout, tournaments)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println("executing template:", err)
    }
}

Original answer:

https://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#hdr-Variables:

A variable's scope extends to the "end" action of the control structure ("if", "with", or "range") in which it is declared, or to the end of the template if there is no such control structure.

So the $prev_year you define with {{$prev_year:=$year}} only lives until.. the next line ({{end}}).

It seems there is no way of going around that.

The "right" way to do this is to take that logic out of your template, and do the grouping in your Go code.

Here is a working example : https://play.golang.org/p/DZoSXo9WQR

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"
    "text/template"
    "time"
)

type Tournament struct {
    Place string
    Date  time.Time
}

type TournamentGroup struct {
    Year        int
    Tournaments []Tournament
}

func groupTournamentsByYear(tournaments []Tournament) []TournamentGroup {
    if len(tournaments) == 0 {
        return nil
    }

    result := []TournamentGroup{
        {
            Year:        tournaments[0].Date.Year(),
            Tournaments: make([]Tournament, 0, 1),
        },
    }

    i := 0
    for _, tournament := range tournaments {
        year := tournament.Date.Year()
        if result[i].Year == year {
            // Add to existing group
            result[i].Tournaments = append(result[i].Tournaments, tournament)
        } else {
            // New group
            result = append(result, TournamentGroup{
                Year: year,
                Tournaments: []Tournament{
                    tournament,
                },
            })
            i++
        }
    }

    return result
}

func main() {
    tournaments := []Tournament{
        // for clarity - date is sorted, we don't need sort it again
        {"Town1", time.Date(2015, time.November, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.Local)},
        {"Town2", time.Date(2015, time.October, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.Local)},
        {"Town3", time.Date(2014, time.November, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.Local)},
    }

    t, err := template.New("").Parse(`
{{$prev_year:=0}}
{{range .}}
    Actions in year {{.Year}}:
    {{range .Tournaments}}

            {{.Place}}, {{.Date}}
    {{end}}
    {{end}}

    `)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    err = t.Execute(os.Stdout, groupTournamentsByYear(tournaments))
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println("executing template:", err)
    }
}
