Add both engines and consolidate.js in your package.json In yourapp.js var engines = require(‘consolidate’); app.engine(‘jade’, engines.jade); app.engine(‘handlebars’, engines.handlebars); More info here
Adding to @mihai’s answer: If you are in Windows, then just concatenating __dirname’ + ‘../public’ will result in wrong directory name (For example: c:\dev\app\module../public). Instead use path, which will work irrespective of the OS: var path = require (‘path’); app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname + ‘../public’))); path.join will normalize the path separator character and will return correct path value.
AFAIK JADE does not support dynamic including. What I suggest is to “include” outside the template, i.e. app.js app.get(‘/admin’, function (req, res) { var Admin = require(‘./routes/admin/app’).Admin; var page=”admin”; var templates = page + ‘/templates/’; // render template and store the result in html variable res.render(templates, function(err, html) { res.render(Admin.view, { title: ‘Admin’, page: page, … Read more
When rendering is done, only the rendered HTML is send to the client. Therefore no variables will be available anymore. What you could do, is instead of writing the object in the input element output the object as rendered JavaScript: script(type=”text/javascript”). var local_data =!{JSON.stringify(data)} EDIT: Apparently Jade requires a dot after the first closing parenthesis.
The toArray function exists on the Cursor class from the Native MongoDB NodeJS driver (reference). The find method in MongooseJS returns a Query object (reference). There are a few ways you can do searches and return results. As there are no synchronous calls in the NodeJS driver for MongoDB, you’ll need to use an asynchronous … Read more
for example: – for (var i = 0; i < 10; ++i) { li= array[i] – } you may see https://github.com/visionmedia/jade for detailed document.
simply use a ‘script’ tag with a dot after. script. var users = !{JSON.stringify(users).replace(/<\//g, “<\\/”)} https://github.com/pugjs/pug/blob/master/packages/pug/examples/dynamicscript.pug
In your main app.js or what is in it’s place: Express 4.x if (app.get(‘env’) === ‘development’) { app.locals.pretty = true; } Express 3.x app.configure(‘development’, function(){ app.use(express.errorHandler()); app.locals.pretty = true; }); Express 2.x app.configure(‘development’, function(){ app.use(express.errorHandler()); app.set(‘view options’, { pretty: true }); }); I put the pretty print in development because you’ll want more efficiency with … Read more
Hide the input with css, add a label and assign it to input button. label will be clickable and when clicked, it will fire up the file dialog. <input type=”file” id=”files” class=”hidden”/> <label for=”files”>Select file</label> Then style the label as a button if you want.
It’s a little late but… script. loginName=”#{login}”; This is working fine in my script. In Express, I am doing this: exports.index = function(req, res){ res.render( ‘index’, { layout:false, login: req.session.login } ); }; I guess the latest jade is different? Merc. edit: added “.” after script to prevent Jade warning.
