django-jadelesscoffee

JadeLessCoffee for Node.js is a quick compiler for Jade, LessCSS, and CoffeeScript. This is a Django middleware for processing templates/src on the fly using it.

IMPORTANT

django-jadelesscoffee is not meant for a production environment. It is slow. Consequently, this middleware will only run on the Django development server.

Requirements

JadeLessCoffee Node.js module. (Note that this is currently in beta until it can be a proven technique.)

Installation

$ pip install django-jadelesscoffee

Then in your Django application, include this middleware: MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = ( ... 'jadelesscoffee.django.middleware.JadeLessCoffeeMiddleware' )

Then add a 'src' folder in any of the TEMPLATE_DIRS and STATICFILES_DIRS entries you want to have .jade, .less, or .coffee files in.

The following commands will run at each request and will only compile files that have changed. jlc --quiet --incremental --python --out {{TEMPLATE_DIRS}} + '/src' {{TEMPLATE_DIRS}} jlc --quiet --incremental --python --out {{STATICFILES_DIRS}} + '/src' {{STATICFILES_DIRS}}
