Underscore.js Templates Within JSP

Question

Underscore.js templates use <%= %> for variable interpolation. Unfortunately that is also interpreted in a JSP (or GSP). Is there a way to use Underscore.js templates wit

Answer 1

Add the following interpolate and evaluate settings in your jsp page

_.templateSettings = {
    interpolate: /\<\@\=(.+?)\@\>/gim,
    evaluate: /\<\@(.+?)\@\>/gim,
    escape: /\<\@\-(.+?)\@\>/gim
};

then you can write your qualify underscore variables,if and for statements with <@ @> instead of <% %> and will not conflict with jsp
