/**
Compiles a template string into a JavaScript function. Pass a data object to the
function to render the template using the given data and get back a rendered
string.
Within a template, use `<%= ... %>` to output the value of an expression (where
`...` is the JavaScript expression or data variable to evaluate). The output
will be HTML-escaped by default. To output a raw value without escaping, use
`<%== ... %>`, but be careful not to do this with untrusted user input.
To execute arbitrary JavaScript code within the template without rendering its
output, use `<% ... %>`, where `...` is the code to be executed. This allows the
use of if/else blocks, loops, function calls, etc., although it's recommended
that you avoid embedding anything beyond basic flow control logic in your
templates.
Properties of the data object passed to a template function are made available
on a `data` variable within the scope of the template. So, if you pass in
the object `{message: 'hello!'}`, you can print the value of the `message`
property using `<%= data.message %>`.
@example
YUI().use('template-micro', function (Y) {
var template = '<ul class="<%= data.classNames.list %>">' +
'<% Y.Array.each(data.items, function (item) { %>' +
'<li><%= item %></li>' +
'<% }); %>' +
'</ul>';
// Compile the template into a function.
var compiled = Y.Template.Micro.compile(template);
// Render the template to HTML, passing in the data to use.
var html = compiled({
classNames: {list: 'demo'},
items : ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four']
});
});
