Brisket.Templating.StringTemplateAdapter

A simple implementation of Brisket.Templating.TemplateAdapter that lets your Views specify a string template in-place.

Usage

Brisket.Templating.StringTemplateAdapter is the default TemplateAdapter for Brisket.View so you can use it right away:

var View = Brisket.View.extend({

    template: '<abbr class="laughing out loud">lol</abbr>'

});

var view = new View();
console.log(view.render().el.innerHTML); // '<abbr class="laughing out loud">lol</abbr>'

Note: The StringTemplateAdapter that ships with Brisket does not handle data i.e. the template will be rendered into the View's el exactly as it is specified regardless of any data that you attempt to pass to it. For example:

var View = Brisket.View.extend({

    template: '<abbr class="laughing out loud">lol {{some}}</abbr>'

    logic: function() {
        return {
            some: 'data'
        };
    }

});

var view = new View();
console.log(view.render().el.innerHTML); // '<abbr class="laughing out loud">lol {{some}}</abbr>'

As you can see, even though we setup a logic function (read here for more on passing data to a template), the data does NOT get used in the template.

If you need a StringTemplateAdapter that can use data too, you will have to implement your own.
