Unclear error when compilation preprocessor isn't available

[aMarCruz]

@davidpelaez , thanks. riot-compiler v2.3 already has parser detection, we are working in improve this.

@GianlucaGuarini , I think it is better include a user-friendly message in the cli for one-time detection. what do you think?

@aMarCruz yes of course but I need to know the errors coming from the compiler, is there a way to make that method public? And how do I know that es6 requires [email protected] ? I think we can find a really smooth solution here ;)

[aMarCruz]

@GianlucaGuarini , parsers._req is called with the type (es6, coffee, etc) and returns the function, or null without throw error if require fails, and babel has a version property.

Ok I will try to implement this feature in the riot-cli thank you

[GianlucaGuarini]

BTW @aMarCruz I would also like to implement 3 new options to export only css, js or html from the tags compiled. Do we have already a method in the compiler to get these strings?

[aMarCruz]

no, but is easy in the compile function if you pass an option for this, returns an object instead a string. But for multiple tags?
Edit: maybe an array of objects.

[GianlucaGuarini]

It sounds great!
Basically the only thing I need is to get any of these variables. I will let you decide what's the best way to achieve it

[aMarCruz]

ok, an object with html, css, js...attributes too? and the name for the option?

[GianlucaGuarini]

@aMarCruz What do you mean?

[aMarCruz]

with an option, e.g. opts.separate, compile() can return an array of objects instead a js string

[GianlucaGuarini]

Yeah it 's ok thanks

[aMarCruz]

I push the code in the feature/parts branch

[GianlucaGuarini]

you can call the option opts.entities = true

[aMarCruz]

done. I complet the test and merge tomorrow. good night/day :)

[GianlucaGuarini]

I will work on it this weekend so take it easy

[GianlucaGuarini]

This issue was fixed in the riot-cli
