# minstache

Mini mustache template engine.

## Installation

$ npm install minstache
$ component install visionmedia/minstache

## minstache(1)

The `minstache(1)` executable can compile a file to a valid
stand-alone commonjs module for you, there's no need to have minstache
as a dependency:

hello.mustache:

```
Hello {{name}}! {{^authenticated}}login{{/authenticated}}
```

convert it:

```
$ minstache < hello.mustache > hello.js
```

hello.js:

```js
module.exports = function anonymous(obj) {

function escape(html) {
return String(html)
.replace(/&/g, '&')
.replace(/"/g, '"')
.replace(//g, '>');
};

function section(obj, prop, negate, str) {
var val = obj[prop];
if ('function' == typeof val) return val.call(obj, str);
if (negate) val = !val;
if (val) return str;
return '';
};

return "Hello " + escape(obj.name) + "! " + section(obj, "authenticated", true, "login") + "\n"
}
```

## API

### minstache(string, [obj])

Compile and render the given mustache `string` with optional context `obj`.

### minstache.compile(string)

Compile the mustache `string` to a stand-alone `Function` accepting a context `obj`.

## Divergence

Partials are not supported, this lib is meant to be a small template engine solution for stand-alone [component](http://github.com/component) templates. If your template takes "partials" then pass other rendered strings to it. If you need a full-blown mustache solution Hogan.js is still great.

Minstache uses `{{!name}}` for unescaped properties.
