render

Template render utility. It takes a template compiling function and a locals object as parameters and calls the first with the second. It also allows setting globals by using render.set which gets merged at every call.

Installation

Install with component(1):

$ component install cristiandouce/render

Example

  var render = require('render');

  function template(locals) {
    return '<a href="' + locals.link + '" target="_blank">\n'
      + '<span>' + locals.title + '</span>\n'
      + '</a>\n';
  }

  // set some static globals
  render.set('link', 'http://github.com/cristiandouce/render');

  // context `locals`
  var locals = { title: 'cristiandouce/render' };

  render(template, locals);
  // out: <a href="http://github.com/cristiandouce/render" target="_blank"> <span>cristiandouce/render</span> </a>

API

render(template, locals)

Compiles template with locals and returns html string of result.

var render = require('render');
var template = require('./template');
var locals = { some: 'locals', obj: 1 };

var html = render(template, locals);
// outputs compiled html string

render.dom(template, locals)

Offers a DOM compiled output by hand of component/domify.

var render = require('render');
var template = require('./template');
var locals = { some: 'locals', obj: 1 };

var html = render.dom(template, locals);
// outputs compiled DOM html

render.set(name, local)

Set a static global to be merged at every render or render.dom call.

var render = require('render');

render.set('_i18n', require('component-t'));
// now `_i18n` will be passed to all template compilings using `render`
