# Acai Modular System

## Modules

Modules are the visual building blocks of Acai websites. Each module lives in `template/estandar/modulos/<module-id>/`.

### File Structure

```
<module-id>/
├── index-base.tpl    # Source template (EDIT THIS)
├── index.tpl         # Compiled output (auto-generated, do NOT edit)
├── index-twig.tpl    # Compiled Twig output (auto-generated, do NOT edit)
├── builder.json      # Compiled builder vars (auto-generated, do NOT edit)
├── style.css         # Module-scoped styles
└── script.js         # Module JavaScript
```

### Template Syntax

Templates use a hybrid of **Twig** and **Acai attributes**. The source file is always `index-base.tpl`.

```html
<section class="hero-section" id="{{ section_id }}">
  <div class="container mx-auto px-4">
    <h2 data-field-type="headfield" class="text-3xl font-bold">
      Title here
    </h2>
    <p data-field-type="textbox" class="text-lg text-gray-600">
      Description text
    </p>
    <img data-field-type="upload" src="placeholder.jpg" class="w-full rounded-lg" />
    <a data-field-type="link" href="#" class="btn">Call to action</a>
  </div>
</section>
```

### Including Modules from Other Modules

```html
<module_id :param1="value1" :param2="'string value'"></module_id>
```

Parameters are received as variables inside the included module.

### Global Variables

| Variable | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `section_id` | Unique ID per module instance (use for anchors, JS scoping) |
| `interno` | `true` when viewing in CMS editor, `false` on public site |
| `server.HTTP_HOST` | Current domain |
| `loop.index` | 1-based iteration index (inside `c-for`) |
| `loop.index is odd` / `loop.index is even` | For alternating layouts |


## General Sections

General sections are database-backed templates used for record views, headers, footers, and reusable layouts. They use the same template engine as modules.

### Key Differences from Modules

- Access record data via the `thisrecord` variable
- Upload fields return **arrays**: `thisrecord.image[0].urlPath`
- Additional upload metadata: `info1` (alt text), `info2`, `info3`, `info4`
- Foreign key fields use `_num` suffix: `thisrecord.category_num`
- Saved via `save_general_section()` (not `save_module()`)
- Parser type 2 = Twig (recommended), 0 = Acai legacy syntax

### Example: Record Template

```html
<article class="product-card">
  <img src="{{ thisrecord.imagen[0].urlPath }}"
       alt="{{ thisrecord.imagen[0].info1 }}"
       class="w-full h-64 object-cover" />
  <h3 class="text-xl font-semibold">{{ thisrecord.nombre }}</h3>
  <p class="text-gray-600">{{ thisrecord.descripcion | raw }}</p>
  <span class="text-2xl font-bold">{{ thisrecord.precio }}€</span>
</article>
```

### Variable Assignment

Use `<set>` tag to create variables from queries:

```html
<set :categories="'categorias' | get()"></set>
<set :featured="'productos' | get({destacado: 1}, 'orden ASC', 3)"></set>
```


## Repeatable Content (multiv2)

The `multiv2` builder field type creates repeatable groups of fields:

```html
<div c-for="item in record.items">
  <h3 data-field-type="textfield">{{ item.title }}</h3>
  <p data-field-type="textbox">{{ item.description }}</p>
  <img data-field-type="upload" src="{{ item.image }}" />
</div>
```

Access individual items: `record.items[0].title`, `record.items[1].image`, etc.
