'{' came as a complete surprise to me

Question

I want to use org.stringtemplate.v4.* as template engine for rendering html pages. However I cant find how to escape open brackets in my file. Templator thinks that it is some expression, while it is just javascript code.

I tried \{ but this not help - i stil got

504:15: invalid character '\'
504:16: '{' came as a complete surprise to me

How to escape this? Or what analogs of stringtemplate exist, that can correctly handle html page as input?

Answer 1

When I got this error was because I forgot a end sign ($) for a attribute. It should be like this $attribute.name$
