Readme
What is asset-pipe?
A function that replaces {{ js }} and {{ css }} template tags in html with the appropriate script and css link tags
Example
var AssetPipe = require('AssetPipe');
var pipe = new AssetPipe(); // instantiates a new asset pipe with scripts and styles loaded from the assets.json file
var inputHtml = '<head>{{ js }} {{ css }}</head>';
var parsedHtml = pipe.parse(inputHtml);assets.json:
{
"environment":"development",
"development" :
{
"scripts" : { "jquery": "jquery.js"},
"styles" : { "main": "main.css"}
},
"production" :
{
"scripts" : { "jquery" : "jquery.min.js", "build" : "app/build.js" },
"styles" : { "main": "main.min.css"}
}
}This would output
<head><script src="/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script><link href="/main.css" rel="stylesheet" /></head>The AssetPipe constructor optionally takes two parameters , "config", and "basePath". "config" replaces the json file with the given config, and the "basePath" parameter prepends a base path before the script and style sources.
