Thymeleaf Layout Dialect
A dialect for Thymeleaf that lets you build layouts and reusable templates in order to improve code reuse.
Documentation
All of the latest documentation on the layout dialect can be found on the dedicated docs website at https://ultraq.github.io/thymeleaf-layout-dialect/
For version 1 docs which supported Thymeleaf 2, the classic readme still exists over on https://github.com/ultraq/thymeleaf-layout-dialect/tree/1.4.0
What does it do?
The Thymeleaf Layout Dialect adds the ability to decorate templates -
automatically for the <head> section of an HTML template, and explicitly
through extension points that developers can add to their templates. This all
adds up to create layouts that can be extended in a manner similar to classical
inheritence.
For example, given a common layout.html file, set some shared static assets in
the <head> and define extension points in the body with the layout:fragment
processor:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:layout="http://www.ultraq.net.nz/thymeleaf/layout">
<head>
<title>Layout page</title>
<script src="common-script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<h1>My website</h1>
</header>
<section layout:fragment="content">
<p>Page content goes here</p>
</section>
</body>
</html>
Create a content template that will define its own title, static resources, and
replacements for those extension points. Link the page to the layout by using
the layout:decorate processor at the root element of the page which will
instruct Thymeleaf to decorate the layout with this template:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:layout="http://www.ultraq.net.nz/thymeleaf/layout"
layout:decorate="~{layout.html}">
<head>
<title>Content page</title>
<script src="content-script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<section layout:fragment="content">
<p>This is a paragraph from the content page</p>
</section>
</body>
</html>
When Thymeleaf processes your content template, the resulting HTML will be:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Content page</title>
<script src="common-script.js"></script>
<script src="content-script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<h1>My website</h1>
</header>
<section>
<p>This is a paragraph from the content page</p>
</section>
</body>
</html>
