How to parse/render a html string with Dojo 1.10?

Let's say I have the following :

const props = {
    buttonText : 'Click Me'
}

const htmlString = "<button>${buttonText}</button>"

dojo.someFunction(htmlString, props);

What would be the dojo module equivalent of "someFunction"?

I understand it can be done with templateMixins, but I don't want to extend/make a widget, only borrow the parsing function.

All you have to do is using the dojo/string -> substitude function that's used in the dojo Dijit’s templating.

See below working snippet :

require(["dojo/string", "dojo/dom","dojo/ready"], function(string, dom , ready) {

  const props = {
    buttonText: 'Click Me'
  }

  const htmlString = "<button>${buttonText}</button>"
  
  var newString = string.substitute(htmlString, props);
  console.log(newString);
  alert("String after substute : \n"+ newString);
  dom.byId("btn").innerHTML = newString ;
  
});
<script type="text/javascript">
  dojoConfig = {
    isDebug: true,
    async: true,
    parseOnLoad: true
  }
</script>

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.10.4/dojo/dojo.js"></script>
<link href="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.8.3/dijit/themes/claro/claro.css" rel="stylesheet" />

<div id="btn"></div>
