grunt-hogan

a grunt task to precompile mustache templates with hogan.js


Getting Started

> NOTE: This documentation is for grunt version 0.4+. To work with version 0.3.x, see here

Install this grunt plugin next to your project's [Gruntfile.js][getting_started] with: npm install grunt-hogan --save-dev

Then add this line to your project's Gruntfile.js:

``javascript
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-hogan');
`

grunt-hogan now uses standard grunt file directives for inputs and outputs.

To precompile a single src template into a single dest module:

`javascript
grunt.initConfig({
//...
hogan: {
//desired target name
mytarget : {
//path to input template
src : 'view/chair.hogan',
//output path, relative to Gruntfile.js
dest : 'bandanna.js'
}
},
//...
});
`

###Multiple input templates via patterns

`javascript
grunt.initConfig({
//...
hogan: {
//desired target name
mytarget : {
//Wildcard of desired templates
src : 'view/*/.hogan',
//output destination
dest : 'hulkingup.js'
}
},
//...
});
`

###Multiple input template patterns

`javascript
//...
mytarget : {
//...
src : ['view/wwf/.hogan', 'view/wcw/.hogan'],
//...
}
//...
`

##Options

grunt-hogan has been updated to support grunt's
task- and target-specific options.
In this way you can DRY out your template tasks.

Some previous "directives" have been deprecated in favor of the new option style.
The old versions should still work (but will warn and explain what to change).

##"Binders"

A single target can compile multiple hogan templates into a single file. The active "binder" is
responsible for deciding how to join things together and what conventions/formats to use.

In general, most binders will result in a file containing a Javascript module, but this is customizable.

If a binder is not explicitly specified, the "default" binder will be used.
The "default" binder generates a javascript file
that is designed to work both as a node.js module and in the browser via a
