hoganify-lite

Mustache precompiler transform plugin for Browserify, using Hogan.js as the compiler. Highly inspired by hbsfy.

Compiles Mustache templates to CommonJS modules. The compiled templates only have one copy of the Hogan.Template object. It doesn't include the Hogan compiler (this is the main difference with hoganify).

Usage

Install hoganify locally to your project:

npm install --save hoganify

You will also need hogan.js installed:

npm install --save hogan.js

Then use it as Browserify transform module with -t:

browserify -t hoganify main.js > bundle.js

Or through grunt-browserify using the transform option:

browserify: {
  options: {
    transform: ['hoganify']
  }
}

In your CommonJS code you simply require files with .hogan, .mustache or .ms extensions:

var template = require('widget.mustache');
document.body.innerHTML = template.render({ title: "Hulk" });

Options

If you want to support other extensions than the default ones, you can use the --ext option with one or more comma separated extensions:

browserify -t [ hoganify --ext .html,.hg ] main.js > bundle.js

Or similarly in grunt-browserify:

browserify: {
  options: {
    transform: [['hoganify', { ext: '.html,.hg' }]]
  }
}
