nerb v1.0.2

node-erb-renderer

#why Because you want to render erb-files in the easiest way possible.

The command takes one argument; the erb-file. Pass json metadata to stdin to enter the data necessary for rendering.

The stdin data consists of two fundamental properties; variables and node

node

<%= node['default']['here_i_am'] %> will be replaced with the value in:

{
    "node": {
        "default": {
            "here_i_am": "rock you like a hurricane!"
        }
    }
}

variables

<%= @imaVar %> will be replaced with the value in:

{
    "variables": {
        "imaVar": "yes you are!"
    }
}`
