Nyun
A small, fast and minimalist rendering engine for express
Install
You can get Nyun via npm.
$ npm install nyun --saveUsage
A nyun template is basically a string template embedded with variables. anything inside ${} is evaluated. Notice the backticks :D
Below is a quick example how to use nyun with express:
app.js
app.set('view engine', 'nyun')Create a nyun template file named index.nyun in the views directory, with the following content
module.exports = (options) => {
with(options){
return `<html>
<head>
<title>${title}<title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>${message}</h1>
</body>
</html>`
}
}Then create a route to render the index.nyun file. If the view engine property is not set, you must specify the extension of the view file. Otherwise, you can omit it.
var view = {
title: "Joe",
message: 'Hello there!'
};
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.render('index', view);
})Partials
Nyun supports including partials out of the box. Just require the partial with its context and its done!
index.nyun
module.exports = (options) => {
with(options){
return `<html>
<head>
<title>${title}<title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>${require('./message.nyun')(message)}</h1>
</body>
</html>`
}
}message.nyun
module.exports = (options) => {
with(options){
return `<span> ${text}
</span>`
}
}and the route is written as
var view = {
title: "Joe",
message: {text:'Hello there!'}
};
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.render('index', view);
})
