EJS List Render

A templete-esq soltion for ejs rendering.

elr(["outerfile.ejs", "middlefile.ejs", "and.ejs", "so-on.ejs"], {data:"for all files"}, function(err, html){
    if(err){
        //you're most likely missing a required parameter
    }
    else{
        //you're html is ready
    }
});

Usage With Connect

var app = require("connect")();
var elr = require("ejs-list-render");
app.use(elr.connect);

//Then when responding

res.render(["outter.ejs", "inner.ejs"], {"data":"for all files"});

Usage With Express: elr.express(opts)

var app = require("express")();
var elr = require("ejs-list-render");
app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));
app.use(elr.express({name:"listRender", data: {title:"My Site"}}));

app.get("/", function(req, res, next){
    res.listRender(["outer", "inner"], {"data":"for all files"});
