This article mainly introduces the quick start learning of EJS templates. The editor thinks it is quite good. Now I will share it with you and give it as a reference. Let’s follow the editor and take a look.

Node There are many options for open source templates, but it is recommended for old people like me to use EJS. There are Classic ASP/PHP /JSP Experience It is indeed very natural to use EJS, that is to say, you can arrange JavaScript code in <%...%> blocks and use the most traditional The method <%=output variable%> (in addition, <%-output variable will not escape symbols such as &). Installation The EJS command is as follows:

npm install ejs

JS call

There are two main methods for JS call:

ejs.compile(str, options); 
// => Function 
 
ejs.render(str, options); 
// => str
Copy after login

In fact, EJS can be free Used independently of Express, for example:

var ejs = require(&#39;&#39;), str = require(&#39;fs&#39;).readFileSync(dirname + &#39;/list.ejs&#39;, &#39;utf8&#39;); 
 
var ret = ejs.render(str, { 
 names: [&#39;foo&#39;, &#39;bar&#39;, &#39;baz&#39;] 
}); 
 
console.log(ret);
Copy after login

See ejs.render(), the first parameter is the string of the template, the template is as follows.

<% if (names.length) { %> 
 <ul> 
  <% names.forEach(function(name){ %> 
   <li foo=&#39;<%= name + "&#39;" %>&#39;><%= name %></li> 
  <% }) %> 
 </ul> 
<% } %>
Copy after login

names become local variables.

Option parameters

The second parameter is data, usually an object. This object can be regarded as an option, which means that the data and selection are both in the same object.

If you don’t want to save the disk every time, you need to cache the template and set options.filename. For example:

var ejs = require(&#39;../&#39;) 
 , fs = require(&#39;fs&#39;) 
 , path = dirname + &#39;/functions.ejs&#39; 
 , str = fs.readFileSync(path, &#39;utf8&#39;);  
var users = []; 
users.push({ name: &#39;Tobi&#39;, age: 2, species: &#39;ferret&#39; }) 
users.push({ name: &#39;Loki&#39;, age: 2, species: &#39;ferret&#39; }) 
users.push({ name: &#39;Jane&#39;, age: 6, species: &#39;ferret&#39; }) 
 
var ret = ejs.render(str, { 
 users: users, 
 filename: path 
}); 
 
console.log(ret);
Copy after login

The relevant options are as follows:

  1. cache Compiled functions are cached, requires filename

  2. filename Cache key name

  3. scope FunctionExecution scope

  4. debug Output generated function body

  5. compileDebug When false no debug instrumentation is compiled

  6. client Returns standalone compiled function

inculde command

Furthermore, if you want to insert a public template like

<ul>
 <% users.forEach(function(user){ %>
  <% include user/show %>
 <% }) %>
</ul>
Copy after login

, that is, introduce a file, you must set the filename option The include feature must be enabled, otherwise include will not know the directory.

Template:

<h1>Users</h1> 
 <% function user(user) { %> 
 <li><strong><%= user.name %></strong> is a <%= user.age %> year old <%= user.species %>.</li> 
<% } %> 
 
<ul> 
 <% users.map(user) %> 
</ul>
Copy after login

EJS supports compiled templates. After template compilation, there will be no IO operations, it will be very fast, and local variables can be shared. The following example user/show ignores the ejs extension:

<ul> 
 <% users.forEach(function(user){ %> 
  <% include user/show %> 
 <% }) %> 
</ul>
Copy after login

Customized CLOSE TOKEN

If you plan to use

{{= title }}< ;/h1> is generally a non-<%%> mark and can also be customized.

 var ejs = require(&#39;ejs&#39;); 
ejs.open = &#39;{{&#39;; 
ejs.close = &#39;}}&#39;;
Copy after login

Formatted output is also ok.

 ejs.filters.last = function(obj) { 
 return obj[obj.length - 1]; 
};
Copy after login

Calling

<p><%=: users | last %></p>
Copy after login

EJS also supports browser environments.

<html> 
 <head> 
  <script src="../ejs.js"></script> 
  <script id="users" type="text/template"> 
   <% if (names.length) { %> 
    <ul> 
     <% names.forEach(function(name){ %> 
      <li><%= name %></li> 
     <% }) %> 
    </ul> 
   <% } %> 
  </script> 
  <script> 
   onload = function(){ 
    var users = document.getElementById(&#39;users&#39;).innerHTML; 
    var names = [&#39;loki&#39;, &#39;tobi&#39;, &#39;jane&#39;]; 
    var html = ejs.render(users, { names: names }); 
    document.body.innerHTML = html; 
   } 
  </script> 
 </head> 
 <body> 
 </body> 
</html>
Copy after login

I wonder if EJS can output multi-layer JSON objects?

By the way, some netizens broke the news that jQ master John wrote a 20-line template a few years ago. It was similar to EJS but short and concise!

Simple and practical jstemplate engine

A js template engine with less than 50 lines, supporting various js syntax:

<script id="test_list" type="text/html"> 
<%= 
  for(var i = 0, l = p.list.length; i < l; i++){ 
    var stu = p.list[i]; 
=%> 
  <tr> 
    <td<%=if(i==0){=%> class="first"<%=}=%>><%==stu.name=%></td> 
    <td><%==stu.age=%></td> 
    <td><%==(stu.address || &#39;&#39;)=%></td> 
  <tr> 
  
<%= 
  } 
=%> 
</script>
Copy after login

"<%= xxx =%>" contains js logic code, "<%== xxx =%>" contains variables for direct output, similar to PHP's echo role. "p" is the k-v object parameter when calling the build method below. It can also be set to another parameter name when calling "new JTemp"

Call:

$(function(){ 
  var temp = new JTemp(&#39;test_list&#39;), 
    html = temp.build( 
      {list:[ 
          {name:&#39;张三&#39;, age:13, address:&#39;北京&#39;}, 
        {name:&#39;李四&#39;, age:17, address:&#39;天津&#39;}, 
        {name:&#39;王五&#39;, age:13} 
      ]}); 
  $(&#39;table&#39;).html(html); 
});
Copy after login

After the above temp is generated, the build method can be called multiple times to generate html. The following is the code of the template engine:

var JTemp = function(){ 
  function Temp(htmlId, p){ 
    p = p || {};//配置信息,大部分情况可以缺省 
    this.htmlId = htmlId; 
    this.fun; 
    this.oName = p.oName || &#39;p&#39;; 
    this.TEMP_S = p.tempS || &#39;<%=&#39;; 
    this.TEMP_E = p.tempE || &#39;=%>&#39;; 
    this.getFun(); 
  } 
  Temp.prototype = { 
    getFun : function(){ 
      var _ = this, 
        str = $(&#39;#&#39; + _.htmlId).html(); 
      if(!str) _.err(&#39;error: no temp!!&#39;); 
      var str_ = &#39;var &#39; + _.oName + &#39;=this,f=\&#39;\&#39;;&#39;, 
        s = str.indexOf(_.TEMP_S), 
        e = -1, 
        p, 
        sl = _.TEMP_S.length, 
        el = _.TEMP_E.length; 
      for(;s >= 0;){ 
        e = str.indexOf(_.TEMP_E); 
        if(e < s) alert(&#39;:( ERROR!!&#39;); 
        str_ += &#39;f+=\&#39;&#39; + str.substring(0, s) + &#39;\&#39;;&#39;; 
        p = _.trim(str.substring(s+sl, e)); 
        if(p.indexOf(&#39;=&#39;) !== 0){//js语句 
          str_ += p; 
        }else{//普通语句 
          str_ += &#39;f+=&#39; + p.substring(1) + &#39;;&#39;; 
        } 
        str = str.substring(e + el); 
        s = str.indexOf(_.TEMP_S); 
      } 
      str_ += &#39;f+=\&#39;&#39; + str + &#39;\&#39;;&#39;; 
      str_ = str_.replace(/\n/g, &#39;&#39;);//处理换行 
      var fs = str_ + &#39;return f;&#39;; 
      this.fun = Function(fs); 
    }, 
    build : function(p){ 
      return this.fun.call(p); 
    }, 
    err : function(s){ 
      alert(s); 
    }, 
    trim : function(s){ 
      return s.trim?s.trim():s.replace(/(^\s*)|(\s*$)/g,""); 
    } 
  }; 
  return Temp; 
}();

The core is to convert the template code into a function that splices strings, and call this function every time you get data.

Because it is mainly used for mobile phones (webkit), the efficiency of string splicing is not considered. If it needs to be used for IE, it is best to change the string splicing method to Array. push() form.

Attachment: An example of connect + ejs.

    var tplPath; 
     
    if(url == &#39;/&#39; || ~url.indexOf(&#39;/?&#39;) || url[url.length - 1] == &#39;/&#39;){
