extend ActiveSupport::Autoload
# === Encodings in ActionView::Template
#
# ActionView::Template is one of a few sources of potential
# encoding issues in Rails. This is because the source for
# templates are usually read from disk, and Ruby (like most
# encoding-aware programming languages) assumes that the
# String retrieved through File IO is encoded in the
# default_external encoding. In Rails, the default
# default_external encoding is UTF-8.
#
# As a result, if a user saves their template as ISO-8859-1
# (for instance, using a non-Unicode-aware text editor),
# and uses characters outside of the ASCII range, their
# users will see diamonds with question marks in them in
# the browser.
#
# For the rest of this documentation, when we say "UTF-8",
# we mean "UTF-8 or whatever the default_internal encoding
# is set to". By default, it will be UTF-8.
#
# To mitigate this problem, we use a few strategies:
# 1. If the source is not valid UTF-8, we raise an exception
# when the template is compiled to alert the user
# to the problem.
# 2. The user can specify the encoding using Ruby-style
# encoding comments in any template engine. If such
# a comment is supplied, Rails will apply that encoding
# to the resulting compiled source returned by the
# template handler.
# 3. In all cases, we transcode the resulting String to
# the UTF-8.
#
# This means that other parts of Rails can always assume
# that templates are encoded in UTF-8, even if the original
# source of the template was not UTF-8.
#
# From a user's perspective, the easiest thing to do is
# to save your templates as UTF-8. If you do this, you
# do not need to do anything else for things to "just work".
#
# === Instructions for template handlers
#
# The easiest thing for you to do is to simply ignore
# encodings. Rails will hand you the template source
# as the default_internal (generally UTF-8), raising
# an exception for the user before sending the template
# to you if it could not determine the original encoding.
#
# For the greatest simplicity, you can support only
# UTF-8 as the default_internal. This means
# that from the perspective of your handler, the
# entire pipeline is just UTF-8.
#
# === Advanced: Handlers with alternate metadata sources
#
# If you want to provide an alternate mechanism for
# specifying encodings (like ERB does via <%# encoding: ... %>),
# you may indicate that you will handle encodings yourself
# by implementing self.handles_encoding?
# on your handler.
#
# If you do, Rails will not try to encode the String
# into the default_internal, passing you the unaltered
# bytes tagged with the assumed encoding (from
# default_external).
#
# In this case, make sure you return a String from
# your handler encoded in the default_internal. Since
# you are handling out-of-band metadata, you are
# also responsible for alerting the user to any
# problems with converting the user's data to
# the default_internal.
#
# To do so, simply raise +WrongEncodingError+ as follows:
#
# raise WrongEncodingError.new(
# problematic_string,
# expected_encoding
# )
