How to Convert Pug Templates to HTML via Command Line
Hot on the heels of my previous post regarding NODE_PATH, here’s a tiny
little script for when you need to convert batches of Pug templates via the
command line. Pug itself does not provide a CLI and it’s easy to see why.
Creating one fitting your needs is trivial.
#!/usr/bin/env node
const prettier = require("prettier");
const pug = require("pug");
var args = process.argv.slice(2);
html = pug.renderFile(args[0]);
console.log(prettier.format(html, { parser: "html" }));
It requires Node.js as well as Pug and Prettier to be globally
installed and that’s it: npm install -g pug prettier
