How it Works
Express and Connect expose app.settings as settings in your views.
This module populates app.settings.readmeDocs with an object of readme's.
Simply require this module, then implement it with route middleware:
var express = require('express')
, express = express()
, readmeDocs = require('readme-docs')(app)
app.set('view engine', 'jade')
app.get('/docs', readmeDocs('getprove', 'node-bootstrap-readme-docs'), function(req, res, next) {
res.render('docs')
})
app.listen(3000)
You can use any templating language, here are a few example implementations:
Jade:
ul!= settings.readmeDocs.getprove['node-bootstrap-readme-docs'].nav
div!= settings.readmeDocs.getprove['node-bootstrap-readme-docs'].body
EJS:
<ul>
<%= settings.readmeDocs.getprove['node-bootstrap-readme-docs'].nav %>
</ul>
<div>
<%= settings.readmeDocs.getprove['node-bootstrap-readme-docs'].body %>
</div>
These examples both output the following HTML when rendered:
<ul>
<li><a href="#how-it-works">How it Works</a></li>
<li><a href="#format">Format</a></li>
<li><a href="#examples">Examples</a></li>
<li><a href="#contributors">Contributors</a></li>
<li><a href="#license">License</a></li>
</ul>
