## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm install --save layouts
```

## Usage

```js
const renderLayouts = require('layouts');

renderLayouts(file, layoutCollection, options);
```

* `file` - a file object (or [vinyl](https://github.com/gulpjs/vinyl) file) with a `file.contents` property that must be a buffer
* `layoutCollection` - an object of file objects to use as layouts
* `options` - see [available options](#options)

## Heads up!

This library does not clone the file object. If you want to prevent `file.contents` from being mutated (after rendering layouts), clone the file first before passing it to this library.

## Example

```js
const renderLayouts = require('layouts');

const file = {
contents: Buffer.from('

Wrap me with a layout!!!
'),
layout: 'one'
};

const layoutCollection = {
one: { contents: Buffer.from('one before\n{% body %}\none after'), layout: 'two' },
two: { contents: Buffer.from('two before\n{% body %}\ntwo after') }
};

const res = renderLayouts(file, layoutCollection);
console.log(res.contents.toString());
// two before
// one before
//

Wrap me with a layout!!!

// one after
// two after
```

## Options

### options.disableHistory

**Type**: `boolean`

**Default**: `undefined`

By default, layouts are prevented from being applied multiple times to the same string. Disable this by setting `disableHistory` to true.

**Example**

```js
layouts(file, layoutCollection, { disableHistory: true });
```

### options.layoutDelims

Custom delimiters to use for injecting contents into layouts.

**Type**: `regex`

**Default**: `/{% (body) %}/g`

### options.preserveWhitespace

Preserve leading whitespace when injecting a string into a layout.

**Type**: `boolean`

**Default**: `undefined`

## History

### 1.0.0

**Breaking changes**

* renames `layoutHistory` to `layoutStack`
* layouts in `layoutStack` are now the actual layout object, instead of the layout name

**Added**

* Adds support for a function as the last argument. If passed, the function is called on the file and each layout with this signature: `fn(file, layout)`.

### 0.13.0

**Breaking changes**

* The main `layouts()` function now expects a `file` object as the first argument. This can be an object with `path`, `layout` and `contents` properties, or a valid [vinyl](https://github.com/gulpjs/vinyl) file. See the [API docs](#api) for more details.

### 0.12.0

**Breaking changes**

* change `options.tag` to `options.contentTag`

**Housekeeping**

* update tests to use `assert` instead of `should`

### 0.11.0

* All view objects must now have a `path` property, following [vinyl](https://github.com/gulpjs/vinyl) conventions.
