Sketchy coffee-script that generates precompiled Hogan templates from a HTML file containing script tags of type `text/x-mustache-template'.

temple.coffee

FS = require("fs")
Path = require("path")

Cheerio = require("cheerio")
Hogan = require("hogan.js")

htmlFile = process.argv[2]

html = FS.readFileSync process.argv[2], encoding: "utf8"
# console.log html

$ = Cheerio.load html
$templates = $("script[type='text/x-mustache-template']")

templates = {}
$templates.each (element) ->
  templates[@attr("id")] = Hogan.compile @text(), asString: true
# console.log templates

js = []
js.push "window.compiledTemplates = {}"
for own name, code of templates
  js.push "compiledTemplates[\"#{name}\"] = new Hogan.Template(#{code});"
js = js.join("\n")

jsDir = Path.dirname(htmlFile)
jsName = Path.basename(htmlFile, Path.extname(htmlFile))
jsFile = Path.join(jsDir, jsName + "-templates.js")

FS.writeFileSync jsFile, js

Example input file core-dialogs.jade which is used to generate main.html file:

script#dialog-template(type='text/x-mustache-template')
  .modal.hide
    .modal-header
      a.cancel.close ×
      img.modal-logo(src='/img/brand.png')
      .modal-title {{title}}

script#alert-dialog-subtemplate(type='text/x-mustache-template')
  .modal-body
    center {{message}}
  .modal-footer
    center
      button.ok.btn.btn-primary     OK    

script#confirm-dialog-subtemplate(type='text/x-mustache-template')
  .modal-body
    center {{message}}
  .modal-footer
    button.cancel.btn Cancel
    button.ok.btn.btn-primary {{confirm}}

script#prompt-dialog-subtemplate(type='text/x-mustache-template')
  .modal-body
    form.form-horizontal
      .control-group
        label.control-label {{message}}
        .controls
          input.answer(type="text", placeholder="{{placeholder}}")
  .modal-footer
