Derby-render NPM

Derby Render

Provides a render function for Derby JS apps that returns html for a given namespace, behaving more or less like app.page.render(namespace).

Version 2.0

The following changes were made because of changes in derby:

Html is now returned asynchronously via a callback function.
Context data is no longer supported. You must pass model data with a collection and document Id.
global and view properties are renamed to data and ns respectively, to reduce confusion.

Installation

$ npm install derby-render --save

Usage

var derby = require('derby');
var app = derby.createApp('app', __filename);
var render = require('derby-render')(app);
app.loadViews(...);
app.proto.foo = ...;
app.proto.bar = ...;

// output the html loaded by "app.page.render()"
render(function (err, html) {
  ...
});

// specify a namespace
render('about', function () {
  ...  
});

// pass in model data
var data = {_page: {year: 2015}};
render(data, function (err, html) {
  ...  
});

// or specify a namespace and data
render('about', data, function (err, html) {
  ...  
});
