micro-pugjs

A stupid demo of a stupid hack.

summary

We're sending javascript code over in a single micro.send() call.

We achieve this by rendering the code we care about as unbuffered code via pugjs. In our example, we also include jquery to help give us bindings when the page loads.

tl;dr:

Instead of including javascript files like a normal person, I made this.

so what?

I don't know yet. Let me know if you figure it something out.

index.js

const micro = require('micro')
const pug   = require('pug')
const fs    = require('fs')

let locals = {};
locals.renderer = fs.readFileSync('./src/render.js')

const server = micro(async (req, res) => {
  var fn = pug.compileFile('./src/index.pug')
  var html = fn(locals)
  micro.send(res, 200, html)
})

server.listen(3000)
