grunt-domly v0.0.6

Precompile DOMly templates

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ^0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-domly --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-domly');

DOMly task

Run this task with the grunt domly command.

Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt Configuring tasks guide.

Options

namespace

Type: String or false or function
Default: 'templates'

The namespace in which the precompiled templates will be assigned. Use dot notation (e.g. App.Templates) for nested namespaces or false for no namespace wrapping. When false with amd option set true, templates will be returned directly from the AMD wrapper.

Example:

options: {
  namespace: 'MyApp.Templates'
}

You can generate nested namespaces based on the file system paths of your templates by providing a function. The function will be called with one argument (the template filepath). The function must return a dot notation based on the filepath.

Example:

options: {
  namespace: function(filename) {
    var names = filename.replace(/modules\/(.*)(\/\w+\.html)/, '$1');
    return names.split('/').join('.');
  },
  files: {
    'ns_nested_tmpls.js' : [ 'modules/**/*.html']
  }
}

root

Type: String
Default: 'this'

The name of the object in which template namespaces will be declared. By default, nsdeclare will declare namespaces within the this object (which defaults to window in browser environments), but you can change it here if necessary.

amd

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Wraps the output file with an AMD define function and returns the compiled template namespace unless namespace has been explicitly set to false in which case the template function will be returned directly.

define(function() {
    //...//
    return this['[template namespace]'];
});

commonjs

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Wraps the output file in a CommonJS module function, exporting the compiled templates. It will also add templates to the template namespace, unless namespace is explicitly set to false.

module.exports = function(DOMly) {
    //...//
    DOMly.template(…);
    return this['[template namespace]'];
};

processName

Type: function

This option accepts a function which takes one argument (the template filepath) and returns a string which will be used as the key for the precompiled template object. The example below stores all templates in the TEMPLATES namespace in capital letters.

options: {
  namespace: 'TEMPLATES',
  processName: function(filePath) {
    return filePath.toUpperCase();
  }
}

separator

Type: String

Default: linefeed + linefeed

Concatenated files will be joined on this string.

compilerOptions

Type Object
Default: {}

This option allows you to specify a hash of options which will be passed directly to the DOMly compiler.

options: {
  compilerOptions: {
    stripWhitespace: true
  }
}

Usage Examples

Compile all the templates in source/templates/ to App.templates using the filename (minus the extension as the template name), storing the output in dist/templates.js.

domly: {
  compile: {
    options: {
      namespace: 'App.templates'
    },
    files: {
      'dist/templates.js': 'source/templates/*.html'
    }
  }
}
