templates.Exists

Usage

The templates.Exists function reports whether a template file exists under the given path relative to the layouts directory. Include the file extension in PATH, such as _partials/footer.html.

The function searches the layouts directory of the unified file system and the embedded templates.

Use this function to check for a template before calling it, such as when you build the template path from page data.

Examples

{{ $partialPath := printf "headers/%s.html" .Type }}
{{ if templates.Exists (printf "_partials/%s" $partialPath) }}
  {{ partial $partialPath . }}
{{ else }}
  {{ partial "headers/default.html" . }}
{{ end }}
