@ai16z/eliza v0.1.6-alpha.4 / composeContext
Function: composeContext()
composeContext(
params):any
Composes a context string by replacing placeholders in a template with corresponding values from the state.
This function takes a template string with placeholders in the format {{placeholder}} and a state object.
It replaces each placeholder with the value from the state object that matches the placeholder's name.
If a matching key is not found in the state object for a given placeholder, the placeholder is replaced with an empty string.
By default, this function uses a simple string replacement approach. However, when templatingEngine is set to 'handlebars', it uses Handlebars templating engine instead, compiling the template into a reusable function and evaluating it with the provided state object.
Parameters
• params
The parameters for composing the context.
• params.state: State
The state object containing values to replace the placeholders in the template.
• params.template: string
The template string containing placeholders to be replaced with state values.
• params.templatingEngine?: "handlebars"
The templating engine to use for compiling and evaluating the template (optional, default: undefined).
Returns
any
The composed context string with placeholders replaced by corresponding state values.
Example
// Given a state object and a template
const state = { userName: "Alice", userAge: 30 };
const template = "Hello, {{userName}}! You are {{userAge}} years old";
// Composing the context with simple string replacement will result in:
// "Hello, Alice! You are 30 years old."
const contextSimple = composeContext({ state, template });
