  This is the text templating system used by pandoc. Its basic function is
  to fill variables in a template. Variables are provided by a “context.”
  Any instance of the @ToContext@ typeclass (such as an aeson @Value@) can
  serve as the context, or a @Context@ value can be constructed manually.
  
  Control structures are provided to test whether a variable has a
  non-blank value and to iterate over the items of a list. Partials—that
  is, subtemplates defined in different files—are supported. Pipes can be
  used to transform the values of variables or partials. The provided
  pipes make it possible to do list enumeration and tabular layout in
  templates.
  
  Templates are rendered to a doclayout @Doc@ (which is polymorphic in the
  underlying string type). If @Doc@ values are used in the context,
  rendered documents will be able to wrap flexibly on breaking spaces.
  This feature makes doctemplates more suitable than other template
  engines for plain-text formats (like Markdown).
  
  Unlike the various HTML-centered template engines, doctemplates is
  output-format agnostic, so no automatic escaping is done on interpolated
  values. Values are assumed to be escaped properly in the Context.
  
  == Example of use
  
  > {-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
  > import Data.Text (Text)
  > import qualified Data.Text.IO as T
  > import Data.Aeson
  > import Text.DocTemplates
  > import Text.DocLayout (render)
  >
  > data Employee = Employee { firstName :: String
  >                          , lastName  :: String
  >                          , salary    :: Maybe Int }
  > instance ToJSON Employee where
  >   toJSON e = object [ "name" .= object [ "first" .= firstName e
  >                                        , "last"  .= lastName e ]
  >                     , "salary" .= salary e ]
  >
  > template :: Text
  > template = "$for(employee)$Hi, $employee.name.first$. $if(employee.salary)$You make $employee.salary$.$else$No salary data.$endif$$sep$\n$endfor$"
  >
  > main :: IO ()
  > main = do
  >   res <- compileTemplate "mytemplate.txt" template
  >   case res of
  >          Left e    -> error e
  >          Right t   -> T.putStrLn $ render Nothing $ renderTemplate t $ object
  >                         ["employee" .=
  >                           [ Employee "John" "Doe" Nothing
  >                           , Employee "Omar" "Smith" (Just 30000)
  >                           , Employee "Sara" "Chen" (Just 60000) ]
  >                         ]
  
  == Delimiters
  
  To mark variables and control structures in the template, either @$@…@$@
  or @${@…@}@ may be used as delimiters. The styles may also be mixed in
  the same template, but the opening and closing delimiter must match in
  each case. The opening delimiter may be followed by one or more spaces
  or tabs, which will be ignored. The closing delimiter may be followed by
  one or more spaces or tabs, which will be ignored.
  
  To include a literal @$@ in the document, use @$$@.
  
  == Comments
  
  Anything between the sequence @$--@ and the end of the line will be
  treated as a comment and omitted from the output.
  
  == Interpolated variables
  
  A slot for an interpolated variable is a variable name surrounded by
  matched delimiters. Variable names must begin with a letter and can
  contain letters, numbers, @_@, @-@, and @.@. The keywords @it@, @if@,
  @else@, @endif@, @for@, @sep@, and @endfor@ may not be used as variable
  names. Examples:
  
  > $foo$
  > $foo.bar.baz$
  > $foo_bar.baz-bim$
  > $ foo $
  > ${foo}
  > ${foo.bar.baz}
  > ${foo_bar.baz-bim}
  > ${ foo }
  
  The values of variables are determined by the @Context@ that is passed
  as a parameter to @renderTemplate@. So, for example, @title@ will return
  the value of the @title@ field, and @employee.salary@ will return the
  value of the @salary@ field of the object that is the value of the
  @employee@ field.
  
  -   If the value of the variable is simple value, it will be rendered
      verbatim. (Note that no escaping is done; the assumption is that the
      calling program will escape the strings appropriately for the output
      format.)
  -   If the value of the variable is a boolean value, it will be rendered
      as @true@ if true, or as empty if false.
  -   If the value is a list, the values will be concatenated.
  -   If the value is a map, the string @true@ will be rendered.
  -   Every other value will be rendered as the empty string.
  
  When a @Context@ is derived from an aeson (JSON) @Value@, the following
  conversions are done:
  
  -   If the value is a number, it will be rendered as an integer if
      possible, otherwise as a floating-point number.
  
  == Conditionals
  
  A conditional begins with @if(variable)@ (enclosed in matched
  delimiters) and ends with @endif@ (enclosed in matched delimiters). It
  may optionally contain an @else@ (enclosed in matched delimiters). The
  @if@ section is used if @variable@ has a true value, otherwise the
  @else@ section is used (if present). The following values count as true:
  
  -   any map
  -   any array containing at least one true value
  -   any nonempty string (even @false@)
  -   boolean True
  
  Examples:
  
  > $if(foo)$bar$endif$
  >
  > $if(foo)$
  >   $foo$
  > $endif$
  >
  > $if(foo)$
  > part one
  > $else$
  > part two
  > $endif$
  >
  > ${if(foo)}bar${endif}
  >
  > ${if(foo)}
  >   ${foo}
  > ${endif}
  >
  > ${if(foo)}
  > ${ foo.bar }
  > ${else}
  > no foo!
  > ${endif}
  
  The keyword @elseif@ may be used to simplify complex nested
  conditionals. Thus
  
  > $if(foo)$
  > XXX
  > $elseif(bar)$
  > YYY
  > $else$
  > ZZZ
  > $endif$
  
  is equivalent to
  
  > $if(foo)$
  > XXX
  > $else$
  > $if(bar)$
  > YYY
  > $else$
  > ZZZ
  > $endif$
  > $endif$
  
  == For loops
  
  A for loop begins with @for(variable)@ (enclosed in matched delimiters)
  and ends with @endfor@ (enclosed in matched delimiters.
  
  -   If @variable@ is an array, the material inside the loop will be
      evaluated repeatedly, with @variable@ being set to each value of the
      array in turn, and concatenated.
  -   If @variable@ is a map, the material inside will be set to the map.
  -   If the value of the associated variable is not an array or a map, a
      single iteration will be performed on its value.
  
  Examples:
  
  > $for(foo)$$foo$$sep$, $endfor$
  >
  > $for(foo)$
  >   - $foo.last$, $foo.first$
  > $endfor$
  >
  > ${ for(foo.bar) }
  >   - ${ foo.bar.last }, ${ foo.bar.first }
  > ${ endfor }
  >
  > $for(mymap)$
  > $it.name$: $it.office$
  > $endfor$
  
  You may optionally specify a separator between consecutive values using
  @sep@ (enclosed in matched delimiters). The material between @sep@ and
  the @endfor@ is the separator.
  
  > ${ for(foo) }${ foo }${ sep }, ${ endfor }
  
  Instead of using @variable@ inside the loop, the special anaphoric
  keyword @it@ may be used.
  
  > ${ for(foo.bar) }
  >   - ${ it.last }, ${ it.first }
  > ${ endfor }
  
  == Partials
  
  Partials (subtemplates stored in different files) may be included using
  the syntax
  
  > ${ boilerplate() }
  
  The partials are obtained using @getPartial@ from the @TemplateMonad@
  class. This may be implemented differently in different monads. The path
  passed to @getPartial@ is computed on the basis of the original template
  path (a parameter to @compileTemplate@) and the partial’s name. The
  partial’s name is substituted for the /base name/ of the original
  template path (leaving the original template’s extension), unless the
  partial has an explicit extension, in which case this is kept. So, with
  the @TemplateMonad@ instance for IO, partials will be sought in the
  directory containing the main template, and will be assumed to have the
  extension of the main template.
  
  Partials may optionally be applied to variables using a colon:
  
  > ${ date:fancy() }
  >
  > ${ articles:bibentry() }
  
  If @articles@ is an array, this will iterate over its values, applying
  the partial @bibentry()@ to each one. So the second example above is
  equivalent to
  
  > ${ for(articles) }
  > ${ it:bibentry() }
  > ${ endfor }
  
  Note that the anaphoric keyword @it@ must be used when iterating over
  partials. In the above examples, the @bibentry@ partial should contain
  @it.title@ (and so on) instead of @articles.title@.
  
  Final newlines are omitted from included partials.
  
  Partials may include other partials. If you exceed a nesting level of
  50, though, in resolving partials, the literal @(loop)@ will be
  returned, to avoid infinite loops.
  
  A separator between values of an array may be specified in square
  brackets, immediately after the variable name or partial:
  
  > ${months[, ]}$
  >
  > ${articles:bibentry()[; ]$
  
  The separator in this case is literal and (unlike with @sep@ in an
  explicit @for@ loop) cannot contain interpolated variables or other
  template directives.
  
  == Nesting
  
  To ensure that content is “nested,” that is, subsequent lines indented,
  use the @^@ directive:
  
  > $item.number$  $^$$item.description$ ($item.price$)
  
  In this example, if @item.description@ has multiple lines, they will all
  be indented to line up with the first line:
  
  > 00123  A fine bottle of 18-year old
  >        Oban whiskey. ($148)
  
  To nest multiple lines to the same level, align them with the @^@
  directive in the template. For example:
  
  > $item.number$  $^$$item.description$ ($item.price$)
  >                (Available til $item.sellby$.)
  
  will produce
  
  > 00123  A fine bottle of 18-year old
  >        Oban whiskey. ($148)
  >        (Available til March 30, 2020.)
  
  If a variable occurs by itself on a line, preceded by whitespace and not
  followed by further text or directives on the same line, and the
  variable’s value contains multiple lines, it will be nested
  automatically.
  
  == Breakable spaces
  
  When rendering to a @Doc@, a distinction can be made between breakable
  and unbreakable spaces. Normally, spaces in the template itself (as
  opposed to values of the interpolated variables) are not breakable, but
  they can be made breakable in part of the template by using the @~@
  keyword (ended with another @~@).
  
  > $~$This long line may break if the document is rendered
  > with a short line length.$~$
  
  The @~@ keyword has no effect when rendering to @Text@ or @String@.
  
  == Pipes
  
  A pipe transforms the value of a variable or partial. Pipes are
  specified using a slash (@\/@) between the variable name (or partial)
  and the pipe name. Example:
  
  > $for(name)$
  > $name/uppercase$
  > $endfor$
  >
  > $for(metadata/pairs)$
  > - $it.key$: $it.value$
  > $endfor$
  >
  > $employee:name()/uppercase$
  
  Pipes may be chained:
  
  > $for(employees/pairs)$
  > $it.key/alpha/uppercase$. $it.name$
  > $endfor$
  
  Some pipes take parameters:
  
  > |----------------------|------------|
  > $for(employee)$
  > $it.name.first/uppercase/left 20 "| "$$it.name.salary/right 10 " | " " |"$
  > $endfor$
  > |----------------------|------------|
  
  Currently the following pipes are predefined:
  
  -   @pairs@: Converts a map or array to an array of maps, each with
      @key@ and @value@ fields. If the original value was an array, the
      @key@ will be the array index, starting with 1.
  
  -   @first@: Returns the first value of an array, if applied to a
      non-empty array; otherwise returns the original value.
  
  -   @last@: Returns the last value of an array, if applied to a
      non-empty array; otherwise returns the original value.
  
  -   @rest@: Returns all but the first value of an array, if applied to a
      non-empty array; otherwise returns the original value.
  
  -   @allbutlast@: Returns all but the last value of an array, if applied
      to a non-empty array; otherwise returns the original value.
  
  -   @uppercase@: Converts text to uppercase.
  
  -   @lowercase@: Converts text to lowercase.
  
  -   @length@: Returns the length of the value: number of characters for
      a textual value, number of elements for a map or array.
  
  -   @reverse@: Reverses a textual value or array, and has no effect on
      other values.
  
  -   @chomp@: Removes trailing newlines (and breakable space).
  
  -   @nowrap@: Disables line wrapping on breakable spaces.
  
  -   @alpha@: Converts textual values that can be read as an integer into
      lowercase alphabetic characters @a..z@ (mod 26). This can be used to
      get lettered enumeration from array indices. To get uppercase
      letters, chain with @uppercase@.
  
  -   @roman@: Converts textual values that can be read as an integer into
      lowercase roman numerials. This can be used to get lettered
      enumeration from array indices. To get uppercase roman, chain with
      @uppercase@.
  
  -   @left n \"leftborder\" \"rightborder\"@: Renders a textual value in
      a block of width @n@, aligned to the left, with an optional left and
      right border. Has no effect on other values. This can be used to
      align material in tables. Widths are positive integers indicating
      the number of characters. Borders are strings inside double quotes;
      literal @\"@ and @\\@ characters must be backslash-escaped.
  
  -   @right n \"leftborder\" \"rightborder\"@: Renders a textual value in
      a block of width @n@, aligned to the right, and has no effect on
      other values.
  
  -   @center n \"leftborder\" \"rightborder\"@: Renders a textual value
      in a block of width @n@, aligned to the center, and has no effect on
      other values.
