Juxt is a powerful JavaScript-based template engine that allows you to embed JavaScript code within templates to generate any type of text. It provides a flexible and extensible way to create and manage dynamic content.
- Evaluate JavaScript code within templates
- Supports importing other tempaltes and js
- If/Else statements within templates
- Each operation within templates
Add the Juxt library to your project as a dependency.
To use the Juxt command-line tool, you can provide the following arguments:
--path(short:-p): The path from which the template will be read. By default, it is set to an empty string. Example:--path /path/to/templates--main(short:-m): The main template name. By default, it is set to "main.juxt". Example:--main my-main-template.juxt--context(short:-c): The context in JSON format to be passed to the template. By default, it is set to an empty JSON object ({}). Example:--context '{"key": "value"}'
Here's an example command that demonstrates how to use these arguments:
juxt -- --path /path/to/templates --main my-main-template.juxt --context '{"key": "value"}'This command reads the template from the specified path, uses the main template named my-main-template.juxt, and passes a context containing a single key-value pair.
To evaluate template you need to call compile_and_execute providing
maintemplate which will be entrypointdependencies- all other templates that main template depends oncontext- json object that will be template context
Additionally you can only compile templates for future use and improving performance.
To do that use compile_juxt method and later on pass result to execute_js with provided context.
Following template
{#script}
function addOne(n) {
return n + 1;
}
{/script}
{#each n in [0, 1, 2]}
${addOne(n)}
{/each}
will be evaluated to:
1
2
3
Here's a summary of the Syntax
