Node-red-contrib-nunjucks-templating NPM

node-red-contrib-nunjucks-templating

A rich and powerful templating language for JavaScript right in Node-RED. For all of the Nunjucks template features checkout the official Nunjucks documentation

Macro usage

Options

You can define any valid Nunjucks options in the Node-RED settings.js file. nunjucks.options

Loading templates

Templates can be defined with the Nunjucks template nodes or be loaded from the file system using preconfigured folders for lookup. Loading is done automatically in the following order: 1. Defined templates as nodes within the project that matches the name 2. Looking for files in one of the configures folders

nunjucks: {
    folders: ["./my-templates", "./templates"],
}

This means you don't have to worry about where the template is defined while including it in your templates.

Template inheritance

extends is used to specify template inheritance. The specified template is used as a base template. See Template Inheritance. npm.io Macro usage

Custom filters

You can register filters using the global function nj.addFilter

// Value will be whatever is piped to the filter
function myFilter(value) {
    return `Foo: ${value}!!`
}

global.get('nj.addFilter')('myFilter', myFilter)

Now you can use it in all of your templates like: {{ 'bar' | foo }}

Output: Foo: bar!!

Passing functions

Functions can be passed like any other variables as context.

// context
msg.payload = {
    foo: 'bar',
    reverse: value => value.split('').reverse().join('')
}

{# template #}
{{ reverse(foo) }}

Output: rab

Global context

You can add global variables in multiple ways: 1. Add a section to settings.js like this:

nunjucks: {
    global: {
        foo: 'bar',
        app: {
            name: 'My Awesome App'
        }
    }
}

Now you can access it anywhere like so: {{ app.name }} and {{ foo }}.

Add it within a function node: global.get('nj.addGlobal')('myVar', 'Some value') Access it anywhere in any template or macro: {{ myVar }}

Macros

"macro allows you to define reusable chunks of content. It is similar to a function in a programming language."

Simple place your macros in a Nunjucks template node or in a file. The macros can be imported simply by there node name or filename. You can have one or more macros in one or more Nunjuck template nodes or files.
