express-handlebars-precompiler

Precompile handlebar templates when it changed without restart server

Installation

npm install express-handlebars-precompiler

Usage

This is how you might use it in an Express project:

app.use(require('express-handlebars-precompiler')({
    templatesPath: 'private/templates',
    amd: true,
    output: 'public/js/templates.js'
}));

In this example set templates dir (with all subdirectories) and compile/recompile it to public/js/templates.js

It is sync method. All options gets from handlebars-precompiler but you should set templatesPath is is path to templates directory. All files in this dir and its subdir with *.handlebars will be compiled when it is necessary.

If you want only compile templates use require('express-handlebars-precompiler').compile(<config>)
