stashed v0.1.8

stashed

Handlebars templates for CLIs! Now you can groom your stash on the command line too. Now with colors!

If you're building a CLI and want to keep the nasty string manipulations out your well crafted code, use this.

Usage

First add stashed to your deps or install manually:

npm i stashed

Next:

var stashed = require('stashed');
var render = stashed({
  templateDir: "./templates"
});

console.log(render('basics'));

console.log(render('with_binds',{
  answer: "two",
  name: "Rich"
}));

Inside ./templates/basics.hbs, you'll find:

{{#rainbow}}Skittles, taste the rainbow{{/rainbow}}

Which will render this in your terminal:

Inside ./templates/with_binds.hbs, you'll find:

This template has some binds:

  1 + 1 = {{answer}}

Hello {{#inverse}}{{name}}{{/inverse}}!

This will render:

Options

render( <String::filename_of_template_wo_ext>, 
        [Object::context_object],
        [Boolean::strip_colors] )

Supported colors and styles

Stashed uses @marak's awesome colors.js. Stashed exposes colors.js' colors and styles as Handlebars block helpers:

• bold
• underline
• italic
• inverse
• grey
• black
• yellow
• red
• green
• blue
• white
• cyan
• magenta
• rainbow
• zebra
• zalgo

To use these, all you have to do is wrap your text with {{#style}}text{{/style}}. You can nest styles too.
