@marko/express

Render Marko templates in an express application.

Installation

npm install @marko/express

Examples

Setup

import express from "express";
import markoMiddleware from "@marko/express";
import Template from "./template.marko";

const app = express();

app.use(markoMiddleware());

app.get("/", (req, res) => {
  // Streams Marko template into the response.
  // Forwards errors into expresses error handler.
  res.marko(Template, { hello: "world" });
});

$global / out.global

When calling res.marko the input.$global is automatically merged with app.locals and res.locals from express. This makes it easy to set some global data via express middleware, eg:

middleware.js

export default (req, res, next) => {
  res.locals.locale = "en-US";
};

Then later in a template access via:

<div>${out.global.locale}</div>
