metalsmith-hbs-relative-partial v1.0.4

Metalsmith HBS Relative Partial Plugin

Install: npm install metalsmith-hbs-realtive-partial

Purpose

Place Handlebars.js template partials in a directory relative to a view they are used in. Best used in conjunction with metalsmith-in-place.

Example

Given this structure...

/src
|    /about
|    |    /components
|    |    |    heading.hbs
|    index.hbs
...

With this content in heading.hbs...

<h1>Hello World</h1>

And this Handlebars partial usage in index.hbs...

{{> about/heading }}

Metalsmith will produce /about/index.html with this content...

<h1>Hello World</h1>

Initialize

In metalsmith.json:

{
  "plugins": {
    "metalsmith-hbs-relative-partial": {
      "dirName": "partials"
    }
  }
}

const relativePartial = require('metalsmith-hbs-relative-partial');
const inPlace = require('metalsmith-in-place');

require('metalsmith')(__dirname)
    .use(relativePartial({
        dirName: 'partials'
    }))
    .use(inPlace())
    .build()

dirName

The name of the directory that your partials will sit in. Example: 'components'... any partials nested under the source in a directory named 'components' will be registered with Handlebars. The name of the partial will be it's relative path to the area of the application. An aside.hbs partial in src/legal/components would be referred to like this: {{> legal/aside }}. Default: partials
