Then, add it to your gulpfile.js:

var consolidate = require("gulp-consolidate");

	}))

API

consolidate(engine, data[, options])

engine

Type: String

The consolidate.js supported template engine used to render each file.

consolidate('swig');

Note: The template engine must also be installed via npm.

npm install --save-dev swig

data

Type: Object|Function

The data to use to render the templates.

consolidate('swig', {
	msg: "Hello World"
});

If this argument is a function, it will be called with the file as the only argument to get the template data.

consolidate('swig', function (file) {
	return {
		BASE_URL : path.relative(file.path, pathToBase)
	};
});

options

Type: Object

Additional options.

options.useContents

Type: Boolean Default: false

consolidate('swig', data, { useContents : true });

Most times, you will want to render templates that include other files. In order to do so, the filenames will be passed to consolidate rather than the file contents.

If you would rather pass the file contents to consolidate, set the useContents option to true.
