A Grunt task for compiling ejs templates with the taste of layouts
, blocks
and partials
.
This Grunt plugin uses randometc's ejs-locals.
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0
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-ejs-locals --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-ejs-locals');
This plugin was designed to work with Grunt 0.4.x. If you're still using grunt v0.3.x it's strongly recommended that you upgrade.
Run this task with the grunt ejs
command.
Task targets
, files
and options
may be specified according to the grunt Configuring tasks guide.
Add the task to your config and specify the destination for the compiled file:
grunt.initConfig({
ejs: {
all: {
src: ['**/*.ejs', '!_partials/**/*', '!_layouts/**/*'],
cwd: 'src/',
dest: 'dist/',
expand: true,
ext: '.html',
options: {
title: 'EJS-locals',
headline: 'EmbeddedJS with locals',
paragraph: 'A Grunt task for compiling ejs templates with the taste of layouts, blocks and partials.'
}
}
}
});
_layouts/default.ejs:
<html>
<head>
<title><%= title %></title>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<%- partial('_partials/header') %>
</header>
<main id="content">
<%- body %>
</main>
</body>
</html>
index.ejs:
<% layout('_layouts/default') -%>
<h1><%= headline %></h1>
