🚧 This Plugin Is Deprecated 🚧

This plugins is deprecated, since Brunch Static APIs are deprecated.

static-jade-brunch

Adds Jade support to brunch without wrapping the compiled html in modules of type commonjs/amd.

With it you can get rid of index.html and use index.jade instead.

If before the brunch compilation the directory structure is something like:

app
| assets
| | font
| | img
| scripts
| styles
| partials
| | presentation.jade
| index.jade

after the brunch build the content of app directory would be like:

| assets
| | font
| | img
| | partials
| | | presentation.html
| | index.html
| scripts
| styles
| partials
| | presentation.jade
| index.jade

and the content of the public/ directory:

css
| ...
js
| app.js
| templates.js
| vendor.js
partials
| presentatin.html
index.html

Usage

Add "jade-brunch": "x.y.z" and "static-jade-brunch": "x.y.z" to package.json of your brunch app.

Pick a plugin version that corresponds to your minor (y) brunch version.

If you want to use git version of plugin, add:

• "jade-brunch": "git+ssh://git@github.com:brunch/jade-brunch.git"
• "static-jade-brunch": "git+ssh://git@github.com:ilkosta/static-jade-brunch.git"

Useful convensions

Brunch concatenates all your files in app/, test/ and vendor/ directories to two files by default:

• app.js contains your application code.
• vendor.js contains code of libraries you depend on (e.g. jQuery).

To avoid the inclusion of compiled jade file in app.js by the jade-brunch plugin, is possible to add a template file handler that point to a different output file. Inside config.coffee:

templates:
      joinTo:
        'js/templates.js': /.+\.jade$/

The brunch compiler ignore each file starting with _ (underscore) and that is useful for the chunks of jade that are included or extended.

The brunch compiler copy the content of the assets/ directory without recompile it. To permit others plugin (eg. auto-reload-brunch plugin) to manage the files generated by static-jade-brunch, all the generated files are placed inside the assets/ directory.

Configuration Options

The plugin can be configured to filter wich file to compile and to place in the assets directory, it can:

• build only the files inside the directories that match a regular expression in the config.plugins.static_jade.path array. (best)
• build only the files that end with the extension specified by config.plugins.static_jade.extension string.
• place the output files in the relative path specified in asset option (app/assets by default). It can be useful when the project is using more assets directories (see config.conventions.assets)

Config example:

  plugins:
    jade:
      options:          # can be added all the supported jade options
        pretty: yes     # Adds pretty-indentation whitespaces to output (false by default)
        compiler: funny # Compiler to replace jade's default
                        # ...
      locals:           # locals can be added
        foo: 'jade is cool'
    static_jade:                        # all optionals
      extension:  ".static.jade"        # static-compile each file with this extension in `assets`
      path:       [ /app(\/|\\)docs/ ]  # static-compile each file in this directories
      asset:      "app/jade_asset"      # specify the compilation output

but is supported this configuration too (for backwards compatibility):

  plugins:
    jade:
      pretty: yes # Adds pretty-indentation whitespaces to output (false by default)
    static_jade:                        # all optionals
      extension:  ".static.jade"        # static-compile each file with this extension in `assets`
      path:       [ /app(\/|\\)docs/ ]  # static-compile each file in this directories
      asset:      "app/jade_asset"     # specify the compilation output

help?

If in doubt, you can play with the project static-jade-brunch-bootstrap
