First off, I am very new to using ANT and I'n not a Java developer but my
needs are very simple ...
I am creating a web site that is decently large but it must be static. So
I'm thinking that I can develop the site locally using server-side includes
to avoid hardcoding all the navigation, etc. and then "publish" the site
using ANT where all the SSIs are replaced with the actual file contents.
Replacing a token is easy enough but I don't know how to "regex" the comment
syntax of the SSIs. Is that even the right approach? Can I use replace or do
I need something else?
This is in the SSI syntax in the HTML:
<!--#include file="_includes/_html_head_open.html" -->
I need to replace with ${html.head.open} as defined below:
<loadfile property="html.head.open"
srcFile="${src}/_includes/_html_head_open.html" />
So I need something like this where the token is the SSI:
<replace dir="${output}" token="@html.head.open@"
value="${html.head.open}" />
The most important thing here is to be able to develop the source files,
view them in the browser and then only at the end do a publish build where
the SSIs are replaced. That's it.
I know there are ANT tasks out there to turn various template markup into
HTML but that is overkill for my needs.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
