Hello World
As with any tool, it's always nice to see something work, so let's create a small "Hello World" page.
Assuming you have Apache configured correctly, create a file
called hello.rvt
where Apache can find
it, with the following content:
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello World</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>
<b><? puts "Hello world" ?></b>
</pre>
</body>
</html>
The example can be elaborated, for example using the html command
<? set hello_message "Hello world" ?>
<html>
<head>
<title><? puts $hello_message ?></title>
</head>
<body><?
puts [::rivet::html $hello_message pre b]
?></body>
</html>
Starting with version 2.0.5 Rivet also supports a shorthand notation to output simple strings.
<? set hello_message "Hello world" ?>
<html>
<head>
<title><?= $hello_message ?></title>
</head>
<body><?= [::rivet::html $hello_message pre b] ?></body>
</html>
