jade-interactive v1.0.0

Instalation

Include jade-interactive in your express application:

npm install jade-interactive --save

And in your main file (usually app.js):

var interactive = require('jade-interactive')

app.set('view engine', 'jade')
// these lines configure jade-interactive in an express app
app.engine('jade', require('jade-debug').__express)
if (not_in_production) {
  interacive.configureApp({
    app: app,
    // Set the command to open your text editor
    // For SublimteText <executable> <file>:<line>
    cmd: '/Applications/Sublime\\ Text\\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl %s:%s',
  })
}
// --

Then in your main jade template (layout.jade for example)

script !{interactiveScript}

Not using express?

Take a look to the index.js file and you will see that the module provides some functionality to integrate jade-interactive in any framework.

• You need to create a /open endpoint that receives a file and a line query parameter. Then call interactive.openFile(file, line)
• Include interactive.interactiveScript when rendering a jade template.
• Set debugLines to true in the options passed to the render function.

Usage

• In a desktop browser use cmd/ctrl+shift+m to enable / disable the debug mode and then click on any DOM node to open the text editor
• In a touch device long press anywhere and the node will be highlighted. Tap on it again to open the text editor

As you can see jade-interactive requires jade-debug which is a fork of jade. If you like jade-interactive please upvote this pull request https://github.com/jadejs/jade/pull/1879 and we no longer will need to use the fork :)
