How could I use electricity.url with Mustache?

[FezVrasta]

Ok I think I'm on the right way... put this into app.js before the routes.

  app.locals.electricity.url = function() {
    return function(text, render) {
        return electricity.url(text);
    };
  };

The problem is that "electricity.url" doesn't exists, because it is passed only to req.locals.electricity.url on the line 310 of /lib/index.js.

Any help?

Ok nevermind, found a solution ^_^

This middleware adds the eURL function to Mustache:

app.use(function(req, res, next) {
    req.app.locals.eURL = function() {
        return function(text) {
            return req.app.locals.electricity.url(text);
        };
    };
    next();
});

Usage:

<script src="{{#eURL}}/scripts/foobar.js{{/eURL}}"></script>

Hey, glad you found a workaround. I've never used Mustache as a template engine with Express, but I wonder if there's a way we could make our module better.

I'm assuming you already tried something like this:

<script src="{{#electricity.url}}/scripts/foobar.js{{/electricity.url}}"></script>

yes it does not work.

return path[0] === '/' ? path : '/' + path;
               ^
