$16 macros NPM version Build Status

TL;DR: JSON/CSON/YAML with ${variables}. Everything's better with variables. And macros.

$16 macros is yet another template engine for Javascript. But unlike most other template engines it expands any kinds of objects, not just strings.

While being designed to be used on top of YAML as a primary input format, the engine itself is format-agnostic: it transforms generic Javascript objects, no matter where they come from.

Installation and usage

Install the sixteen-dollar-macros package as a dependence:

$ npm install sixteen-dollar-macros --save

Nothing special here:

$16Macros = require 'sixteen-dollar-macros'

API

result = $16Macros.expand {hey: '$hi!'},
	variables:
	  hi: 'Hello World'
# {hey: 'Hello World!'}
