Pass variables to jade template from commandline

Question

I\'m planning to use jade templates to generate different htmls depending on if it is in development or in production. At this time, I\'m not planning to write code in node. Giv

Answer 1

You need to use the option -O/--obj within the Jade CLI. It accepts 2 type of values:

• Serialized JSON
• A path to a JSON file (this takes precedence)

For example:

jade -O myfile.json template.jade

or

jade --obj '{ "cache": true }' template.jade
