combynify

combynify

combyne precompiler plugin for browserify.

features

• Optimizes templates into dependency-free isolated objects
• Recursively bundles all referenced filters, partials, and template inheritance

usage

installation

Install combynify from npm, probably as a devDependency:

npm install --save-dev combynify

Use it as a browserify transform with -t:

browerify -t combynify main.js > bundle.js

configure extensions

If you're planning on using an extension other than html, you should configure the extension option using Browserify's configuration.

Set like:

browserify -t [ combynify --extension .tmpl ] index.js > dist/out.js

requiring

main.js can look something like this:

var template = require('./hello.combyne')
console.log(template.render({ who: 'world' }))

hello.combyne is a text file like this:

hello, {{ who }}

This is the equivalent of doing:

var template = combyne('hello, {{ who }}')
console.log(template.render({ who: 'world' }))

so you can use all of combyne's fancy features like filters and partials:

var template = require('./hello.combyne')
template.registerFilter(...)
template.registerPartial(...)
console.log(template.render({ who: 'world' }))
