Could we catch the error that underscore throws, add the filename and rethrow it ?

Implement https://github.com/kangax/html-minifier to reduce size of compiled templates.

After a change, the following output is produced

module.exports=function(obj){{var __t,__p="";Array.prototype.join}with(obj||{})__p+=module.exports=function(obj){{var __t,__p="";Array.prototype.join}with(obj||{})__p+=

It gets duplicated every time the watch fires

Hi,
I followed the instructions and ran browserify -t node-underscorify content.js > content-bundle.js but I get this error:

I'm able to add node-underscorify to browserify's transform array via package.json, but it'd be great to also be able to specify the node-underscorify options here as well.

I'm attempting to pass templateSettings via grunt-browserify. My Gruntfile looks like:

var template_opts = {
    interpolate:    /\{\{(.+?)\}\}/g,
    escape:         /\{-(.+?)\}/g,
    evaluate:       /<%(.+?)%>/g
};

module.exports = function( grunt ) {
    grunt.initConfig({
        pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),

        browserify: {
            spec: {
                options: {
                    transform: [['node-underscorify', { templateSettings: template_opts }]],
                    browserifyOptions: {
                        debug: true
                    }
                },
                src:    ['app/config.js','spec/**/*-spec.js'],
                dest:   'spec/bundle.js'
            }
        }
    });

    grunt.loadNpmTasks( 'grunt-browserify' );
};

The compiled code doesn't use the specified delimiters.

And file (template) with node_modules in its path is ignored by this transform. This may be an expected behavior in Browserify, but if that's the case I'd recommend documenting how to override it. Happy to help track this down later, but wanted to capture the information while I was thinking about it.

Hi,
node-underscorify works like charm if underscore is set as global, but I need to use it locally for my modules, how can I setup underscore with shim when I require my templates ?

I tried something like that in my grunt file but unfortunately it doesn't work :

Grunt file

shim: {
underscore:  {
  path: 'vendor/underscore/underscore.js',
  exports: '_'
},
templates: {
  path: 'templates/**/*.html',
  exports: null,
  depends: {
       underscore: 'underscore'
 }
}

Module file

var _ = require('underscore');
var MyTemplates = require('templates/my-template.html');

Thanks.

I'm writing tests to run in node.js with mocha via jsdom (following this example) and I notice node-underscorify does not have an effect when the require() is done outside of browserify (makes sense). Is there any way to run my require() through node-underscorify outside of browserify? Or am I going about testing all wrong?

The html-minifier dependency is currently configured at 0.5.6.

New versions offer the ignoreCustomFragments option which allows minification to occur correctly in some underscore template use-cases.

For example:

<select>  <option value="1" <%= selected ? "selected" : "" %> ></option>  </select>

Does not parse properly with html-minifier 0.5.6. Newer versions have added the ignoreCustomFragments option which allows the minifier to ignore underscore template blocks. This can be used like so for the default underscore template syntax:

ignoreCustomFragments: [/<%[^%]*%>/]

To ease contribution:

• add a ~npm build command
• not version generated JS files but rather use prepublish scripts
• add your version of coffee in devDependencies
• add npm test script
• (opt.) add CONTRIBUTING.md

Thx!

Isn't the point of precompiling the template to eliminate the runtime dependency on _?
