html2mithril

This is a small library that is intended to be used with gulp to convert raw html files into Mithril's view.js files.

The majority of the code is from Leo Horie (https://github.com/lhorie). Original code from Leo was a web page that converted html string (http://lhorie.github.io/mithril/tools/template-converter.html). This script converts the web based version for use in gulp. Use example in gulp

gulp.task('html2mithril', function() {
    // gulp.src -- get html template
    return gulp.src("./header/text.html")
        // pipe through plugin
        .pipe(mithrilify("object", "postRender"))
        //Rename file as view.js
        .pipe(rename('./header/view.js'))
        // set destination
        .pipe(gulp.dest('./'))
});

You can watch for changes in the file or files with gulp watch.

var paths = {
    htmlfile : './header/text.html'
};

gulp.task('watch', function() {
    gulp.watch(paths.htmlfile, ['html2mithril']);

});

gulp.task('default', ['html2mithril', 'watch']);

It takes two arguments :

object (string)

The module object that the view binds to. for example if your mithril structure is like this:

var header = {}
header.controller = function(){}
header.view = function(){} 

In this case your object is a string called "header".

postRender (string)

If you would like to run a function for rendering when div is loaded you can add it into the wrapper div element. This will appear as :

m('div', {config: postRender, [ m(...)])
