README

        

ST (StringTemplate) is a java template engine (with ports for C#, Python, and Objective-C coming) for generating source code, web pages, emails, or any other formatted text output. ST is particularly good at multi-targeted code generators, multiple site skins, and internationalization / localization. It evolved over years of effort developing jGuru.com and then ANTLR v3.

The main website is:

> https://www.stringtemplate.org

Its distinguishing characteristic is that it strictly enforces
model-view separation, unlike other engines. See:

> https://www.cs.usfca.edu/~parrt/papers/mvc.templates.pdf

The documentation is in this repo

guaranteed to work and might even destroy all life on this planet.

## INSTALLATION

### Manual Installation

All you need to do is get the StringTemplate jar into your `CLASSPATH`. See [Java StringTemplate](doc/java.md).

### Maven

To reference StringTemplate from a project built using Maven, add the following
to the `` element in your **pom.xml** file.

```xml

org.antlr
ST4
4.3.4
compile

```

### Gradle

In `build.gradle`, add the following dependency:

```groovy
dependencies {
// ...

// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.antlr/ST4
compile group: 'org.antlr', name: 'ST4', version: '4.3.4'
}
```

Make sure you are using the `mavenCentral` repository by adding it if necessary:

```groovy
repositories {
// ...
mavenCentral()
}
```
