namespace-context

namespace-context

Use with Assemble, Verb, or Templates.js to easily add namespaced variables like page or post to the context. This allows you to use {{page.title}} instead of {{title}} to get the current page's title. Can be used with verb, assemble v0.6.0, or any application based on Templates.js.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install namespace-context --save

Usage

In the example, app is assemble, verb, or any templates-based application. Just replace app with your application of choice.

var namespace = require('namespace-context');
var assemble = require('assemble');
var app = assemble();

// create the `page` namespace
app.use(namespace('page'));

// use the `page` variable in templates
app.page('abc.md', {content: '{{page.title}}'})
  .render({title: 'Page Title'}, function(err, res) {
    if (err) throw err;
    //=> 'Page Title'
  });

Custom collections

Works the same way with custom view collections.

var app = assemble();
app.create('posts');

// create the `post` namespace
app.use(namespace('post'));

// use the `post` variable in templates
app.post('abc.md', {content: '{{post.title}}'})
  .render({title: 'Post Title'}, function(err, res) {
    if (err) throw err;
    //=> 'Post Title'
  });
