Pug Plugin for DocPad

Adds support for the Pug templating engine to DocPad

Convention: anything.pug

Install

docpad install pug

Awareness

Before you get started with Pug, it is important to be aware of one thing. The majority of support questions that come through with DocPad, aren't actually DocPad issues, but Pug issues. People confusing the syntax, Pug doing it's own templating magic, things like that.

The DocPad team recommends you try one of the many other amazing templating engines that are available, over trying to use Pug.

If you still insist on using Pug, please be aware, Pug will be a slippery slope, but luckily there are determined Pug users here to help :)

Usage

---
title: "Pug Example"
---

h1= document.title

ul
	each page in getCollection("html").findAll({isPage:true}).toJSON()
		li(class!=page.id === document.id ? 'active' : 'inactive')
			a(href=page.url)
				= page.title

Template Helpers as Filters

Use just like any pug template. However, we do add any docpad template helpers you may have as pug filters. There are two ways you can use these filters:

-# first way, calls the template helper like: myTemplateHelper("content", {opt1="blah",opt2="blah",opt3=true})
:myTemplateHelper(opt1=blah,opt2=blah,opt3)
    content

-# second way, calls the template helper like: myTemplateHelper(arg1, arg2)
:myTemplateHelper(args)
    arg1
    arg2

NOTE: Not all template helpers support being called this way. If it doesn't work, we'd recommend using the text plugin to render eco which includes your template helper call. See following section.

Pug :filters

All JSTransformers can now be used as pug filters.

Rendering with the Text Plugin

You can use the text plugin to render different parts of your template with different markups that are support by your docpad setup. Once installed, you can do things like:

:t(render="markdown")
    here is some *markdown*

:t(render="html.md.eco")
    here is some <%-'eco'.toUpperCase()%> to *markdown* to html

:t(render="html.eco")
    my url is <%[email protected]%>
