"readme":"#EJS\n\nEmbeddedJavaScripttemplates\n\n[](https://travis-ci.org/mde/ejs)\n[](https://david-dm.org/mde/ejs?type=dev)\n\n## Installation\n\n```bash\n$ npm install ejs\n```\n\n## Features\n\n * Control flow with `<% %>`\n * Escaped output with `<%= %>` (escape function configurable)\n * Unescaped raw output with `<%- %>`\n * Newline-trim mode ('newline slurping') with `-%>` ending tag\n * Whitespace-trim mode (slurp all whitespace) for control flow with `<%_ _%>`\n * Custom delimiters (e.g., use `<? ?>` instead of `<% %>`)\n * Includes\n * Client-side support\n * Static caching of intermediate JavaScript\n * Static caching of templates\n * Complies with the [Express](http://expressjs.com) view system\n\n## Example\n\n```html\n<% if (user) { %>\n <h2><%= user.name %></h2>\n<% } %>\n```\n\nTry EJS online at: https://ionicabizau.github.io/ejs-playground/.\n\n## Usage\n\n```javascript\nvar template = ejs.compile(str, options);\ntemplate(data);\n// => Rendered HTML string\n\nejs.render(str, data, options);\n// => Rendered HTML string\n\nejs.renderFile(filename, data, options, function(err, str){\n // str => Rendered HTML string\n});\n```\n\nIt is also possible to use `ejs.render(dataAndOptions);` where you pass\neverything in a single object. In that case, you'll end up with local variables\nfor all the passed options. However, be aware that your code could break if we\nadd an option with the same name as one of your data object's properties.\nTherefore, we do not recommend using this shortcut.\n\n## Options\n\n - `cache` Compiled functions are cached, requires `filename`\n - `filename` The name of the file being rendered. Not required if you\n are using `renderFile()`. Used by `cache` to key caches, and for includes.\n - `root` Set project root for includes with an absolute path (/file.ejs).\n - `context` Function execution context\n - `compileDebug` When `false` no debug instrumentation is compiled\n - `client` When `true`, compiles a function that can be rendered\n in the browser without needing to load the EJS Runtime\n ([ejs.min.js](https://github.com/mde/ejs/releases/latest)).\n - `delimiter` Character to use with angle brackets for open/close\n - `debug` Output generated function body\n - `strict` When set to `true`, generated function is in strict mode\n - `_with` Whether or not to use `with() {}` constructs. If `false` then the locals will be stored in the `locals` object. Set to `false` in strict mode.\n - `localsName` Name to use for the object storing local variables when not using `with` Defaults to `locals`\n - `rmWhitespace` Remove all safe-to-remove whitespace, including leading\n and trailing whitespace. It also enables a safer version of `-%>` line\n slurping for all scriptlet tags (it does not strip new lines of tags in\n the middle of a line).\n - `escape` The escaping function used with `<%=` construct. It is\n used in rendering and is `.toString()`ed in the generation of client functions. (By default escapes XML).\n\nThis project uses [JSDoc](http://usejsdoc.org/). For the full public API\ndocumentation, clone the repository and run `npm run doc`. This will run JSDoc\nwith the proper options and output the documentation to `out/`. If you want\nthe both the public & private API docs, run `npm run devdoc` instead.\n\n## Tags\n\n - `<%` 'Scriptlet' tag, for control-flow, no output\n - `<%_` 'Whitespace Slurping' Scriptlet tag, strips all whitespace before it\n - `<%=` Outputs the value into the template (escaped)\n - `<%-` Outputs the unescaped value into the template\n - `<%#` Comment tag, no execution, no output\n - `<%%` Outputs a literal '<%'\n - `%%>` Outputs a literal '%>'\n - `%>`
