## README
# Bowtie
[](https://travis-ci.org/bowtie-js/bowtie)
[](https://coveralls.io/github/bowtie-js/bowtie?branch=master)
Expressive template engine for Node.js heavily inspired by [Jade](http://jade-lang.com/).
## Goals
This project aims to develop an expressive template language to write html documents using the [dry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_repeat_yourself) and [kiss](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle) principles. And of course, remove the pain of writing angle brackets.
## Current status
This project is currently in it's pre-alpha stage. Current features:
- [x] Basic html output
- [x] Loops
- [x] If-Else
- [x] Mixins
- [x] Extending
- [x] Importing
- [ ] Variables
## Installation
```
$ npm install bowtie-js
```
##### Syntax highlighting
Syntax highlighting and auto completion is available for [Atom editor](https://atom.io/). Syntax highlighting is triggered on .bow-files.
Install:
```
$ apm install atom-language-bowtie
```
## Usage
### With Gulp
Gulp compatible compiling comes out of the box with Bowtie, example:
```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var bowtie = require('bowtie-js').gulp;
gulp.task('bowtie', function() {
return gulp.src('*.bow')
.pipe(bowtie({
// Pretty output
"pretty": true,
// Object to pass to template engine
"locals": {
"title": "Example application"
}
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'));
});
```
### Example
```
!doctype("html")
html {
head {
title: $title
}
body {
div.className {
h1: "Example"
p: "Hello world!"
}
}
}
```
The example above outputs:
```html
Example application
```
