meteor-static-html-compiler

A tool that allows you to compile static HTML templates so you could import them from a module.

Installation

meteor add urigo:static-html-compiler

If you are looking for a package with a working implementation of this tool you should check static-templates.

Example

import {
  MainHtmlCompiler, // body, head
  TemplateHtmlCompiler, // templates
  StaticHtmlCompiler,
  utils,
} from 'meteor/urigo:static-html-compiler';

class TemplateCacheCompiler extends TemplateHtmlCompiler {
  compileContents(file, contents) {
    const template = utils.clean(contents);
    return `module.exports = "${template}"`;
  }
}

Plugin.registerCompiler({
  extensions: ['html']
}, () => new StaticHtmlCompiler(new MainHtmlCompiler, new TemplateCacheCompiler));
