API
deposit([options])
options
d.injector(name, function (options, done) {})
name- The name of the inejctor. This is the name you will use in your html document. Only slug-valid names are allowed (i.e.fetch,custom-injector, etc).
d.tree([filepath, function (err, contents) {}])
Parse and inject a file. By default, the function returns a stream. You may also provide a callback and it will be called and return the parsed file contents. This method also has a streaming interface.
filepath- The path to the file to parse and inject.
d.blockTree([filepath, function (err blocks) {}])
Parse the given html file and return an object representation of the parseable blocks. This method also has a streaming interface.
filepath- The path to the file to parse and inject.
Injectors
Injectors are used to put dynamic content into the html as static content. Injectors are basically plugins that exports a function:
module.exports = function (options, done) {
});The injector function recieves 2 parameters:
options- This is an object map of the options in the commented markup. If the html had<!-- inject:fetch url=http://some.site.com/page timeout=5 assign=bob -->, the options would beurl: http://some.site.com/pagetimeout: 5assign: bob
done- This callback gets called with these values -done(err, content). The content will be injected and replace the commented markup
