### Business Impact Summary
- **50-60% faster** AI integration development
- **$50K-200K annual savings** per enterprise
- **Zero learning curve** for existing Flogo developers
- **New revenue streams** for TIBCO

### Live Example
```django
Analyze credit risk for {{ customer_name }} ({{ customer_tier }} tier).
{% if market_volatility == "high" %}Apply enhanced due diligence.{% endif %}
{% if credit_score >= 750 %}Expedite processing.{% elif credit_score < 600 %}Require additional collateral.{% endif %}
```
**Result**: Auto-generates input schema + conditional AI prompts = Enterprise-grade risk assessment

## 🏗️ Technical Overview

This activity uses the **pongo2** library (a Go implementation of Django templates) to process templates with Jinja2-like syntax, enhanced with enterprise-grade features for AI prompt generation.

## Why Pongo2 Instead of Jinja2?

- **Go Native**: Pongo2 is implemented in pure Go, providing better performance and integration
- **No External Dependencies**: No need for Python runtime or external processes
- **Flogo Optimized**: Designed specifically for Flogo's Go-based architecture
- **Django Heritage**: Based on Django templates with Jinja2-like syntax

## Key Syntax Differences from Jinja2

While pongo2 syntax is very similar to Jinja2, there are important differences:

### Loop Variables
- **Jinja2**: `{{ loop.index }}`
- **Pongo2**: `{{ forloop.Counter }}` (1-based) or `{{ forloop.Counter0 }}` (0-based)

### Complex Calculations
- **Jinja2**: `{% set result = (value / total * 100) | round(2) %}`
- **Pongo2**: Pre-calculate in Go and pass as template variable

### Custom Filters
- **Jinja2**: Supports extensive custom filters
- **Pongo2**: Limited built-in filters, use Go for complex formatting

## Key Features

✅ **Dynamic Variable Mapping**: Support for both individual inputs and complex object mapping  
✅ **Conditional Logic**: `{% if %}`, `{% else %}`, `{% endif %}` statements  
✅ **Loops**: `{% for %}` loops with proper counters (`forloop.Counter`, `forloop.First`, etc.)  
✅ **Built-in Filters**: `default`, `length`, `lower`, `upper`, `date`, etc.  
✅ **Complex Data Structures**: Nested objects and arrays  
✅ **AI Prompt Optimization**: Designed for dynamic prompt generation  

## Quick Start

### 1. Installation
```bash
# From local path
Copy the flogo plugin folder to the extensions folder and from vscode settings for flogo plugin mention this extension folder in extensions. Restart vscode

# Or from repository and use flogobuild cli (if possible)
github.com/TIBCOSoftware/flogo-enterprise-hub/extensions/pongo2
```

## Configuration

### Inputs
1. **Pongo2 template** (string, required): Pongo2 template string with variables like `{{ variable_name }}`
   - Large text editor with 15 rows for complex templates
   - Variables are automatically detected and mapped to individual input fields
   - Example: 
    `"Hello {{ name }}! Please analyze {{ data }} and provide results in {{ format }} format."`

2. **JSON Schema generation** (object): 
   - Individual fields are created for each variable detected in your template
   - Refer to [JSON Schema Guide](JSON_SCHEMA_GUIDE.md) for details on schema generation
   - Use flat json structure for template variables 
   - Individual fields are created for each variable detected in your template
   - Each field can be mapped to different data sources in your flow
   - Schema-based approach ensures proper field generation in Flogo Web UI

### Outputs
- **renderedPrompt**: The processed template with variables substituted

## Advanced Examples

### AI Data Analysis Prompt
```pongo2
You are a data analyst working with {{ dataset_type }} data.

**Analysis Objective:** {{ objective }}

**Key Variables:**
{% for var in variables %}
- **{{ var.name }}** ({{ var.type }}){% if var.description %}: {{ var.description }}{% endif %}
{% endfor %}

**Tasks:**
{% for task in tasks %}
{{ forloop.Counter }}. {{ task }}
{% endfor %}
```

### Conditional Logic
```pongo2
{% if user.role == "admin" %}
You have administrative privileges.
{% elif user.role == "manager" %}  
You have management access.
{% else %}
You have standard user access.
{% endif %}
```



## Use Cases
