Generic template helper for creating an array of vinyl file objects from a glob pattern.

Install

Install with npm:

m install --save helper-glob-files
Usage

This can be used as a helper with handlebars, lodash, assemble, engine or directly as a utility function.

Heads up!

The purpose of this helper is to easily create an array of files to use in templates. This means that the source and dest patterns will need to be known at render time and, as such, this helper expects a dest path to be defined as a string on the helper options or on the context, otherwise an error is thrown.

glob = require('helper-glob-files');
ole.log(glob('*.js', {dest: ''}));
 [ <File "example.js">, <File "index.js"> ]
Handlebars usage
handlebars = require('handlebars');
lebars.registerHelper('glob', glob);

Then in templates:

ach (glob "*") as |file|}}
file.path}}
ach}}

Tip

Get the contents for each file:

fs = require('fs');
lebars.registerHelper('read', function(filepath) {
turn fs.readFileSync(filepath, 'utf8');

Then in templates:

 tmpl -->
ach (glob "*") as |file|}}
{read file.path}}</p>
ach}}

Then:

ompile
fn = handlebars.compile(tmpl);
ender 
ole.log(fn());
Lo-dash usage
template = require('lodash.template');

Then in templates:

 tmpl -->
lob("*", {dest: ""}).map(function(item) { %>
item.stem %>
) %>

Then:

ompile
fn = template(tmpl, {imports: {glob: glob}});
ender 
ole.log(fn());
