striate
striate is a thin wrapper for ejs that is smart about line breaks, so you don't have to worry so much about delimiter placement.
Install
$ npm install --save striate
Usage
striate uses >>
at the beginning of a line as the delimiter.
The entire line will be excluded from the output.
var striate = var input = `var a = 10; >> if(b) {var b = 20;>> } var c = 30;` var output1 = /*var a = 10; var b = 20; var c = 30;*/ var output2 = /*var a = 10; var c = 30;*/
API:
var output = striate(input, data, options)
- input - The input template (string)
- data - The data to be injected into the template (object)
- options - Options that are passed along to ejs (object)
Options:
// By default striate takes data and renders your template using ejs. // Set to false to output an unrendered ejs template instead. render: true // If you prefer to indent all lines of code between >> delimeters without // it affecting the output, set this to true. indent: false
Under the hood
striate transforms templates directly into ejs, but with whitespace placed correctly near delimiters.
var a = 10; >> ifb var b = 20;>> var c = 30;
is exactly the same as the following ejs code:
var a = 10; <% ifb %>var b = 20;<% %>var c = 30;
Note: striate's functionality is similar to slurp syntax <%_ ... _%>
introduced in ejs, but better for nested indentation.
