Thymeleaf 3.0 is coming! Along the last months we have worked really hard and now we are very near the finish line. So we wanted to share the current status of the project along with some quite detailed descriptions on all the major new features that are already available.
First, quick status: Thymeleaf 3.0 is already as functional as 2.1 (all 2.1 tests pass), and almost all the new major features are already developed.
So what can Thymeleaf 3.0 already offer to you today? well, lots of great features. Have a look at the links below for nice, extensive descriptions in the form of GitHub tickets:
And what are the still-undeveloped major features?
- DOM simple expressions
- Decoupled templates
Not much to worry, though, they should both be ready soon ;-)
Want to try all of this?
Great! you can use the 3.0.0-SNAPSHOT version if you want, but maybe you prefer not to work on snapshots –which might change every day– and instead prefer to use our latest ALPHA version, 3.0.0.ALPHA03, which is not a snapshot and will therefore not change — although we will at some point publish an ALPHA04, or BETA01 or something like that...
For example:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.thymeleaf</groupId>
<artifactId>thymeleaf</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0.ALPHA03</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.thymeleaf</groupId>
<artifactId>thymeleaf-spring4</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0.ALPHA03</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
As for the JavaDoc:
The current artifacts have been published in 3.0.0.ALPHA03 version:
- thymeleaf
- thymeleaf-spring3
- thymeleaf-spring4
- thymeleaf-testing
- thymeleaf-extras-springsecurity3
- thymeleaf-extras-springsecurity4
No Apache Tiles integration yet for 3.0… oh, and you won't need thymeleaf-extras-conditionalcomments anymore, as its functionality is covered by Thymeleaf's core now in 3.0.
Hope you like it, and enjoy it. We are really eager to hear your feedback!
Regards,
Daniel.
