## Important
This compiler will not work with older Riot.js versions.
It's designed to work with Riot.js > 4.0.0.
For Riot.js < 4.0.0 please check the [v3](https://github.com/riot/compiler/tree/v3) branch
## Installation
```
npm i @riotjs/compiler -D
```
## Usage
The riot compiler can compile only strings:
```js
import { compile } from '@riotjs/compiler'
const { code, map } = compile('
{hello}
')
```
You can compile your tags also using the new `registerPreprocessor` and `registerPostprocessor` APIs for example:
```js
import { compiler, registerPreprocessor, registerPostprocessor } from '@riotjs/compiler'
import pug from 'pug'
import buble from 'buble'
// process your tag template before it will be compiled
registerPreprocessor('template', 'pug', function(code, { options }) {
const { file } = options
console.log('your file path is:', file)
return {
code: pug.render(code),
// no sourcemap here
map: null
}
})
// your compiler output will pass from here
registerPostprocessor(function(code, { options }) {
const { file } = options
console.log('your file path is:', file)
// notice that buble.transform returns {code, map}
return buble.transform(code)
})
const { code, map } = compile('{hello}
', {
// specify the template preprocessor
template: 'pug'
})
```
## API
### compile(string, options)
#### @returns `{ code, map }` output that can be used by Riot.js
- *string*: is your tag source code
- *options*: the options should contain the `file` key identifying the source of the string to compile and
the `template` preprocessor to use as string
Note: specific preprocessors like the `css` or the `javascript` ones can be enabled simply specifying the `type` attribute
in the tag source code for example
```html
```
### registerPreprocessor(type, id, preprocessorFn)
#### @returns `Object` containing all the preprocessors registered
- *type*: either one of `template` `css` or `javascript`
- *id*: unique preprocessor identifier
- *preprocessorFn*: function receiving the code as first argument and the current options as second
### registerPostprocessor(postprocessorFn)
#### @returns `Set` containing all the postprocessors registered
- *postprocessorFn*: function receiving the compiler output as first argument and the current options as second
