ES6 template engine interface

This module allows native ES6 template literals to be used with DADI Web.

Installation

• Add this module as a dependency:

  npm install @dadi/web-es6-templates --save
  

• Include it in the engines array passed to Web:

  require('@dadi/web')({
    engines: [
      require('@dadi/web-es6-templates')
    ]
  })

Usage

Helpers

The base directory for absolute paths is the utils/helpers directory.

Helpers are required() functions that can be embeded into templates to keep your code DRY. Take this example which could live in your helpers folder as slugify.js.

var s = require('underscore.string/slugify')

module.exports = slugify = (chunk) => {
  return s(chunk)
}

This function would be used in a template file like so:

${slugify('The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog')}

Output:

the-quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog

Includes

The base directory for absolute paths is the pages/ directory. Take the following directory tree.

pages/
|_ partials/
|_ |_ header.js
|_ |_ footer.js
|_ index.js
|_ index.json

To include the partials from index.js, you can use an underscore to indicate a sub-folder:

${partials_header}

<h1>ES6 Templates test</h1>

<p>This page lives at ${host}.</p>

<h2>Loop test</h2>

<ul>
  ${posts.results.map(i => '<li>' + i.attributes.title + '</li>').join('')}
</ul>

${partials_footer}
