This time I will show you how to use node front-end developmenttemplate engineJade, what are the precautionsfor using node front-end development template engine Jade, the following is a practical case, let's come together take a look.

With the development of the web, front-end applications have become more and more complex, and back-end-based javascript(Node.js) has also begun to emerge. At this time, greater expectations are placed on javascript. At the same time, the idea of ​​​​javascript MVC also became popular. In order to separate the user interface from business data (content), the concept of "template engine" was born.

To put it simply, the template engine is a string with several variables to be determined, and the data is dynamically stuffed into it through the template engine function.

Today we will talk about the usage and grammar instructions of Jade. Jade official website: jade-lang.com/

Jade command line tool

The use of Jade requires the Node environment and is installed through the npm package Jade command line tool, after successful installation, you can create a new file with the file suffix *.jade. We can use jade's syntax to our heart's content. After writing, we only need to compile it through the command line tool to compile it into the html static file we usually use.

Installation method

1. First determine whether the Node environment and npm tool are installed. The check method is as follows:

Execute as follows in the command line tool Code:

node -v
=> v0.10.35
npm -v
=> 1.4.28
// 如果成功返回版本号信息即为已成功安装 Node 环境。

2. Install the Jade command line tool globally through npm

npm install jade -g
// mac用户可能需要管理员权限，使用如下命令
sudo npm install jade -g

3. Create the *.Jade file and start the task.

4. Compile the jade file into an html file by using the Jade command line tool

  -p, --path <path> filename used to resolve includes / 在处理 stdio 时，查找包含文件时的查找路径
  -P, --pretty    compile pretty html output / 格式化编译 html 文件
  -c, --client    compile function for client-side runtime.js / 编译浏览器端可用的 runtime.js
  -n, --name <str>  The name of the compiled template (requires --client) / 编译模板的名字

  --name-after-file Name the template after the last section of the file path (requires --client and overriden by --name)
  --doctype <str>  Specify the doctype on the command line (useful if it is not specified by the template) / 在命令行中指定文档类型(如果在模板中没有被指定)
 Examples:
  # 编译整个目录
  $ jade templates
  # 生成 {foo,bar}.html
  $ jade {foo,bar}.jade
  # 在标准IO下使用jade
  $ jade  my.html
  # 在标准IO下使用jade
  $ echo 'h1 Jade!' | jade
  # foo, bar 目录渲染到 /tmp
  $ jade foo bar --out /tmp</str></str></path>
</dir>
</dir>
</dir></str>

Example:

// 比如说我们需要编译index.jade文件，默认编译到同文件夹下的同名html 文件中
jade index.jade
// 如果我们要格式化输出 index.html 文件，只需要添加 -P 参数即可
jade -P index.jade
// 如果我们要实现监听和自动编译，需要使用 -w 参数
jade -P -w index.jade
