README

Andre

Andre is a Node.js file-watching template compiler for ejs and underscore templates. By default it will output compiled ejs templates as javascript files, although it can optionally output rendered templates files as well. Andre can optionally use underscore as its templating engine, or you can specify a custom template engine.

example

The example below would compile and watch ejs files in the 'src' directory and output javascript files in the 'dist' directory:

var andre = require('andre');
andre.watch('src', 'dist');
