## Syntax
|
|
|
|
Jade is a clean, whitespace sensitive syntax for writing html. Here is a simple example:
|
|
|
|
```jade
|
|
doctype html
|
|
html(lang="en")
|
|
head
|
|
title= pageTitle
|
|
script(type='text/javascript').
|
|
if (foo) bar(1 + 5)
|
|
body
|
|

|
|
#container.col
|
|
if youAreUsingJade
|
|
p You are amazing
|
|

|
|
p.
|
|
Jade is a terse and simple templating language with a
|
|
strong focus on performance and powerful features.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
becomes
|
|
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
|
<html lang="en">
|
|
<head>
|
|
<title>Jade</title>
|
|
<script type="text/javascript">
|
|
if (foo) bar(1 + 5)
|
|
</script>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<h1>Jade - node template engine</h1>
|
|
<div id="container" class="col">
|
|
<p>You are amazing</p>
|
|
<p>Jade is a terse and simple templating language with a strong focus on performance and powerful features.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</body>
|
|
</html>
|
|
```

The official [jade tutorial](http://jade-lang.com/tutorial/) is a great place to start. While that (and the syntax documentation) is being finished, you can view some of the old documentation [here](https://github.com/jadejs/jade/blob/master/jade.md) and [here](https://github.com/jadejs/jade/blob/master/jade-language.md)

|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
For full API, see [jade-lang.com/api](http://jade-lang.com/api/)
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var jade = require('jade');
|
|
|
|
// compile
|
|
var fn = jade.compile('string of jade', options);
|
|
var html = fn(locals);
|
|
|
|
// render
|
|
var html = jade.render('string of jade', merge(options, locals));
|
|
|
|
// renderFile
|
|
var html = jade.renderFile('filename.jade', merge(options, locals));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Options
|
|
|
|
- `filename` Used in exceptions, and required when using includes
|
|
- `compileDebug` When `false` no debug instrumentation is compiled
|
|
- `pretty` Add pretty-indentation whitespace to output _(false by default)_
|
|
|
|
## Browser Support
|
|
|
|
The latest version of jade can be download for the browser in standalone form from [here](https://github.com/jadejs/jade/raw/master/jade.js). It only supports the very latest browsers though, and is a large file. It is recommended that you pre-compile your jade templates to JavaScript and then just use the [runtime.js](https://github.com/jadejs/jade/raw/master/runtime.js) library on the client.
|
|
|
|
To compile a template for use on the client using the command line, do:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ jade --client --no-debug filename.jade
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
which will produce `filename.js` containing the compiled template.
|
|
|
|
## Command Line
|
|
|
|
After installing the latest version of [node](http://nodejs.org/), install with:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ npm install jade -g
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and run with
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ jade --help
|
|
```
|
|
|
