I have a local html file I would like to use as a template

  • 0

I have a local html file I would like to use as a template to print some different NSObjects, is there a way to render this without having to do a bunch of stringByReplacingOccuranceOfString methods?

Looking for something I would do in MVC on a web site:

HTML Template: 

    <html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>Manufacturer</h1>
     <p>
     ##Manufacturer.ManufacturerName##
     </p>
    </body>
    </html>

And would call some function passing in the Manufacturer object and get an NSString back of that template with the object property values substituted in place of my placeholder values.

    You can do something like this:

    NSString *html = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Manufacturer</h1>
 <p>
%@
 </p>
</body>
</html>",  Manufacturer.ManufaacturerName];  
[webView loadHTMLString:html baseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"some random page"]];  //I'm not entirely sure what the baseURL is used for
