Package description
The pug-code-gen package is a part of the Pug templating engine ecosystem. It is responsible for generating JavaScript code from Pug templates. This package is typically used internally by the Pug compiler to convert Pug syntax into executable JavaScript functions.
Generate JavaScript Code from Pug Templates
This feature allows you to generate JavaScript code from a Pug template's Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). The generated code can then be executed to render HTML.
const pugCodeGen = require('pug-code-gen');
const ast = { /* Abstract Syntax Tree of a Pug template */ };
const options = { /* options for code generation */ };
const jsCode = pugCodeGen(ast, options);
console.log(jsCode);Custom Code Generation Options
This feature allows you to customize the code generation process by providing various options such as disabling debug information or formatting the output code to be more readable.
const pugCodeGen = require('pug-code-gen');
const ast = { /* Abstract Syntax Tree of a Pug template */ };
const options = { compileDebug: false, pretty: true };
const jsCode = pugCodeGen(ast, options);
console.log(jsCode);The 'pug' package is the main package for the Pug templating engine. It includes the full functionality to compile Pug templates into HTML, including parsing, lexing, and code generation. It is more comprehensive compared to pug-code-gen, which focuses solely on the code generation aspect.
The 'ejs' package is another popular templating engine for JavaScript. It allows you to generate HTML with plain JavaScript. Unlike pug-code-gen, which is part of the Pug ecosystem, EJS uses a different syntax and approach for templating.
The 'handlebars' package is a powerful templating engine that provides a more logic-less approach to templates compared to Pug. Handlebars focuses on keeping the templates clean and readable, separating the logic from the markup. It serves a similar purpose but with a different philosophy and syntax.
Readme
Default code-generator for pug. It generates HTML via a JavaScript template function.
npm install pug-code-gen
var generateCode = require('pug-code-gen');
generateCode(ast, options)Generate a JavaScript function string for the given AST.
ast is a fully expanded AST for Pug, with all inclusion, extends, and filters resolved.
options may contain the following properties that have the same meaning as the options with the same names in pug:
falsetrueundefinedfalse[]falseIn addition to above, pug-code-gen has the following unique options:
compileDebug is true; default is undefined'template'var lex = require('pug-lexer');
var parse = require('pug-parser');
var wrap = require('pug-runtime/wrap');
var generateCode = require('pug-code-gen');
var funcStr = generateCode(parse(lex('p Hello world!')), {
compileDebug: false,
pretty: true,
inlineRuntimeFunctions: false,
templateName: 'helloWorld'
});
//=> 'function helloWorld(locals) { ... }'
var func = wrap(funcStr, 'helloWorld');
func();
//=> '\n<p>Hello world!</p>'
new generateCode.CodeGenerator(ast, options)The constructor for the internal class of the code generator. You shouldn't need to use this for most purposes.
