layout.dt not contains any D code.

(And how to write multiple lines D code into templates?)

I'm afraid this is not possible. Templates can only be defined at global/module scope, but the code inside a diet template is internally always inserted at function scope.

Workaround is to define the template in a separate .d module and - import ...; it.

Multiple lines would, in theory, work like this:

- template(string name)
	- string e = "";
	- static if (a==null)
		- alias e v;
	- else
		- alias a.getValue!(name) v;
