First time with Marko

[Gilson DElrei]

Hello all.

I installed Marko package according to the documentation . It was installed in a folder \ nodejs \ node_modules \ marko . I tried to follow the documentation and have compiled the hello.marko and here begin the doubt. I do not know exactly what to do from here. Based on http://raptorjs.org/marko/try-online/#Simple_Hello_World I create an .html file simply ? No include required ? Please can provide a more complete example of html + JS ?

Thanks in advance .

Gilson

Gilson,

A marko file needs to be rendered to produce output. Typically the output is HTML. A common use case is to render a template out to a file or out to an HTTP response.

First check out how to load a template:

https://github.com/marko-js/marko#template-loading

Next, take a look at the Streaming API:

https://github.com/marko-js/marko#streaming-api

This section shows how to render a template to a "index.html" file.

An HTTP response object is also a stream this code is also common:

require('./my-template.marko').render({a: '123'}, res);

The {a: '123'} argument is just data that becomes available in the template via the "data" variable.

For example, to render the value of the "a" property in your template use:

${data.a}

You can also bundle up compiled templates and use these templates to render data in the browser. My guess is that you're starting with server-side rendering but client-side rendering of a template is also really powerful.

Let me know if I can help with anything else!

Thanks,

Phil
