ssi-cmd

Command line tool to call the ssi npm package

Installation

npm install ssi-cmd

Usage

  Usage: ssi <source> <target> <files> [options]

    Options:

    -w, --watch <pattern>  Watch for changes and recompile if any
    -c, --clean [folder]   Delete the target folder before compiling
    -l, --loosened         Support loosened spacing in ssi directives
    -h, --help             output usage information

This package is essentially a command-line interface to ssi, which allows you to use server-side include directives for simple includes and the like.

Examples

For a directory structured as follows:

root
|-- dist
|-- src
|   |-- partials
|   |   |-- part1.html
|   |   |-- part2.html
|   |-- page1.html
|   |-- page2.html
|-- package.json

Compile any html templates directly under the /src to the /dist directory

ssi src dist '/*.html'

Compile all html templates under /src and any subfolders to an equivalent folder under /dist (including partials in the above example)

ssi src dist '/**/*.html'

Delete the /dist directory before copying the files over

ssi src dist '/*.html' -c

Delete only html files under the /dist directory before copying the files over

ssi src dist '/*.html' -c '/*.html'

Watch for changes to templates and partials and recompile when they occur

ssi src dist '/*.html' -w '/**/*.html'
