Mustache Marked Media - View Engine for Express 3
npm install mmmMustache Marked Media - View Engine for Express 3,
featuring Hogan.js
Supports
- partials
- layout
- caching
npm install mmm
See example/app.js
Add to your app configuration
app.set('view engine', 'mmm');
And if you want caching...
app.enable('view cache'); // Express 3 will enable this by default for production environments
To set an app-wide layout...
app.set('layout', 'responsive-layout'); // will look for a layout named 'responsive-layout.mmm' in 'views' directory
app.render('page', // will look for a file named 'page.mmm' in the 'views' directory
vars); // vars is expected to be a hash that will be merged onto app.locals
// or for a response object (res)
res.render('page', vars); // vars will be merged onto res.locals and app.locals
Example:
app.locals.a = 1;
app.locals.b = 1;
app.locals.c = 1;
res.locals.a = 2;
res.locals.b = 2;
res.render('page', {a: 3});
page.mmm
``
{{a}} {{b}} {{c}}
result:
`
3 2 1
A layout can be applied either to the entire application or at the call to render.
app.set('layout', 'test');
// or
app.render('page', { layout:'test2' });
// or
app.render('page', { layout:false }); // Turn off layout
Layout is implemented using partials. A layout should contain a partial named 'content'.
`
The content will go here --> {{> content}}
Partials may be explicitly set or automatically loaded from the file system.
app.set('partials', { header: '
page.mmm
`
{{>header}}
{{>menu}}
{{>footer}}
footer.mmm
`
{{=<% %>=}}
This template will be included in page.mmm automatically if {{>footer}} is not otherwise resolved.
