## README

# ejstpl [![](https://travis-ci.org/diffsky/ejstpl.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/diffsky/ejstpl)

Compile [ejs templates](https://github.com/visionmedia/ejs) for use serverside and clientside.

## Breaking Change in 4.0.0

version `4.0.0` uses ejs `2.0.0` which is not backwards compatible with lower versions.
See https://github.com/diffsky/ejstpl/issues/1 for more detail.


## Install

### Globally

```
[sudo] npm -g i ejstpl
```

### In a project

```
npm i ejstpl --save[-dev]
```

## Usage

### On the command line

```
  Usage: ejstpl [options]

  Options:

    -h, --help          output usage information
    -V, --version       output the version number
    -i, --input [glob]  glob string to find .ejs files
    -c, --cwd [dir]     directory to start globbing from
    -o, --output [dir]  directory to output compiled js files
    -v, --verbose       send progress to stdout
```

### Programatically

```
var ejstpl = require('ejstpl');

// To compile templates to the filesystem:
ejstpl({
  cwd: <path to input dir>,
  output: <path to output dir>
})

By default ejstpl will glob for and compile `**/*.ejs` in the specified `cwd`. To
Glob for a different pattern, pass in a `input` property.

// To get an object with all the compiled templates for use serverside, omit the output option:
var templates = ejstpl({
  cwd: <path to input dir>
})
console.log(templates['foo']({data: 'hello'})
```

### Clientside

When compiled for clientside use, ejstpl is designed to be used with [`dist/ejstpl.js`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/diffsky/ejstpl/master/dist/ejstpl.js) for the ejs lib to use clientside.

Compiled templates can be rendered in the browser via:

```
ejs.tpl('templateName', opts);  // where opts is the data to be rendered
```

All compiled templates are in the `ejs.tplc` template cache.
