# express-partials
|
|
|
|
Express 3.x Layout & Partial support.
|
|
|
|
The beloved feature from Express 2.x is back as a middleware!
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
$ npm install express-partials
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The simple case:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var express = require('express')
|
|
, partials = require('express-partials')
|
|
, app = express();
|
|
|
|
// load the express-partials middleware
|
|
app.use(partials());
|
|
|
|
app.get('/',function(req,res,next){
|
|
res.render('index.ejs')
|
|
// -> render layout.ejs with index.ejs as `body`.
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
app.get('/no-layout',function(req,res,next){
|
|
res.render('index.ejs',{layout:false})
|
|
// -> only renders index.ejs
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
app.get('/mobile',function(req,res,next){
|
|
res.render('index.ejs',{layout:'mobile'})
|
|
// -> render mobile.ejs with index.ejs as `body`.
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default express-partials tries to figure the engine out by using the extension of the template. But in special cases an extension can be registered. And this can be done in a few ways:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// a function
|
|
partials.register('.j',require('jade').render);
|
|
|
|
// module (or object with a .render() function)
|
|
partials.register('.j',require('jade'));
|
|
|
|
// string (= require(str))
|
|
partials.register('.j','jade');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For an example on how to use partials in the first place I'd recommend you checking out the [Express 2.x ejs example](https://github.com/visionmedia/express/tree/2.x/examples/ejs).
|
|
|
|
## Template Support
|
|
|
|
Any synchronous template engine should work fine. But check out the [tests](./test/test.partials.register.js) for a few engines tested.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## TODO
|
|
|
|
- Async template engines?
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Running Tests
|
|
|
|
To run the test suite first install dependencies with the following command within the repo:
|
|
|
|
$ npm install
|
|
|
|
then run the tests:
|
|
|
|
$ npm test
|
