hmpo-template-mixins

passports-template-mixins

A middleware that exposes a series of Mustache mixins on res.locals to ease usage of forms, translations, and some other things.

It takes in three arguments t a function that shall be executed to translate keys into strings of the current locale, a fields object describing config related to the keys that are passed into the mixins that refer to fields, and an options object that has three keys viewsDirectory that allows you override the directory that the module checks for partials in (defaults to looking inside the root of this project), viewEngine which allows you to alter the file extension of the templates, and sharedTranslationsKey which stores a relative key from which to look for field and button translations.

Installation

npm install [--save] hmpo-template-mixins;

Usage

var express = require('express');
var i18n = require('i18next');
