Func: safeHTML

Go template strips the HTML comment while rendering the template file. To preserve HTML comment or any special char use safeHTML template func. Of-course use it with care.

Note: Use only if you trust the HTML source, since it preserves the HTML content without escaping.

<!-- For example: -->
{{ safeHTML `<!--[if lt IE 9]>
    <script src="//oss.maxcdn.com/html5shiv/3.7.2/html5shiv.min.js"></script>
    <script src="//oss.maxcdn.com/respond/1.4.2/respond.min.js"></script>
<![endif]-->` }}

Adding your custom Funcs or Third-Party Funcs

You add custom template func using aah.App().AddTemplateFunc.

func init() {
	aah.App().AddTemplateFunc(template.FuncMap{
		"myfuncname": func() string {
			return "mycustom function value"
		},
	})
}

Third-Party Funcs

func init() {
  aah.App().AddTemplateFunc(gtf.GtfFuncMap)
}
func init()  {
  aah.App().AddTemplateFunc(sprig.FuncMap())
}
