Thyemleaf 嵌套迭代触发器 org.thymeleaf.exceptions.TemplateInputException

Question

I'm trying to iterate through a list of objects and generate a div class="card-deck" every 4 objects and a nested div class="card" for every object.

This is the code that generates the exception on line 234

UPDATE: Note: line 234 is mentioned in html and had the <!-- Error-Line 234 --> due to a missing ) at ${#numbers.sequence(0,3}

    <div class="card-deck" th:each="qr: ${objects}" th:if="${qr.tableid}%4==0"> <!-- Iterate every 4 objects -->

    <!--syntax error missed clossing ) at ${#numbers.sequence(0,3) triggered the exception here -->
    <div class="card" th:each="i : ${#numbers.sequence(0,3)} ">   <!-- Error-Line 234 -->


        <!-- Some More Code -->
        <img th:src="${qr.qrcodestaticpath}" class="card-img-top" alt="...">
        <div class="card-body">
            <h5 class="card-title" align="center" th:text="'Table '+${qr.tableid}"></h5>
            <p class="card-text" align="center" th:text="'Random Generated QR Code'"></p>
            <h6 align="center" th:text=" ${qr.qrcodestring}"></h6>

        </div>
    </div>
  </div>

org.thymeleaf.exceptions.TemplateInputException: An error happened during template parsing (template: "class path resource [templates/qrcodes.html]" - line 234, col 10)

I've already been on these topics

• How to do if-else in Thymeleaf?
• Thymeleaf Loop Until a Number
• nested (double) loop with thymeleaf
• Thymeleaf - How to loop a list by index

and gone through this documentation

• Iteration in Thymeleaf | Baeldung

and still can't figure a proper way of doing it, without triggering an exception

UPDATE: Exception is fixed, the logic i'm trying implementing doesn't have the desired outcome:

Outcome of the above snippet:

Imagine there are 8 tables, table1, table2... table8, i'm trying to generate a <div class="card-deck"... for every 4 or 5 tables. Due to <div class="card" th:each="i: ${#numbers.sequence(0,3)} "> I get the 4 same tables.

• qr.tableid are the table numbers, 1 to x

For purposes of demonstration take a look at this java snippet

int numOfObjects=11;
    for(int i=0 ;i<numOfObjects;i++)
    {
        if(i%4==0)
        {
           System.out.println();
           System.out.print("Deck:");
        }
          System.out.print("Card"+(i+1)+" ");    
     }

Output:

This is my Controller

@GetMapping("/qrcodes")
      public String greetingForm(Model model) {

        List<QrObject> qr =qrRepo.findAll();
        int numOfobj= qr.size();
        int decks;

        if(numOfobj % 4==0)
            decks = numOfobj / 4 ;
        else
            decks = (numOfobj / 4) +1 ;

        int posa_periseuoun = numOfobj % 4 ;
        model.addAttribute("objects", qr);
        model.addAttribute("decks",decks);
        model.addAttribute("cards",posa_periseuoun);
        model.addAttribute("size", numOfobj);
        return "qrcodes";
      }

Here is an approach which I think represents what you are trying to do.

End Result

Jumping to the end result, this will display the following text in a browser:

Deck: Card1 Card2 Card3 Card4
Deck: Card5 Card6 Card7 Card8
Deck: Card9 Card10 Card11 

More usefully, the HTML is as follows:

<div class="card-deck">
    <span>Deck: </span>
    <span class="card">Card1 </span>
    <span class="card">Card2 </span>
    <span class="card">Card3 </span>
    <span class="card">Card4 </span>
</div>
<div class="card-deck">
    <span>Deck: </span>
    <span class="card">Card5 </span>
    <span class="card">Card6 </span>
    <span class="card">Card7 </span>
    <span class="card">Card8 </span>
</div>
<div class="card-deck">
    <span>Deck: </span>
    <span class="card">Card9 </span>
    <span class="card">Card10 </span>
    <span class="card">Card11 </span>
 </div>

The Java Objects

The Deck:

public class Deck {

    private final String deckName;
    private final List<Card> cards = new ArrayList();

    public Deck(String deckName) {
        this.deckName = deckName;
    }

    public List<Card> getCards() {
        return cards;
    }

    public String getDeckName() {
        return deckName;
    }

}

The Card:

public class Card {

    private final String cardName;

    public Card(String cardName) {
        this.cardName = cardName;
    }

    public String getCardName() {
        return cardName;
    }

}

Assembling the Decks:

Map<String, Object> model = new HashMap();

// this is equivalent to your findAll()...
List<Card> allCards = new ArrayList();
for (int i = 1; i<= 11; i++) {
    allCards.add(new Card("Card" + i));
}

int maxCardsPerDeck = 4;        
List<Deck> decks = new ArrayList();

Deck deck;
List<Card> deckCards = new ArrayList();
int cardCount = 0;
for (Card card : allCards) {
    cardCount++;
    deckCards.add(card);
    if (cardCount % maxCardsPerDeck == 0 ||
            cardCount == allCards.size()) {
        deck = new Deck("Deck");
        deck.getCards().addAll(deckCards);
        decks.add(deck);
        deckCards.clear();
    }
}

model.put("decks", decks);

The above code is fairly crude - it could probably be refined. But the point is: it assembles a collection of decks, with each deck containing no more than the allowed maximum of cards (4 in this example).

The Thymeleaf

<div class="card-deck"
     th:each="deck: ${decks}">
    <span th:text="${deck.deckName + ': '}">
    </span>
    <span class="card"
          th:each="card: ${deck.cards}"
          th:text="${card.cardName + ' '}">
    </span>
</div>

I used <span> s here, just so things are aligned. You can use whatever you need, and provide the CSS styling you need also.
