Blade is a Sketch 3 plugin for automatically HTML generating. It will generate tag <div>
for group, tag <p>
for text , etc.
##Notice##
- This plugin now work for latest Sketch beta or version above 3.0.3(7882) !!!.
- This version is more stable now, but may still have problem with mega size sketch file.
- Please group all you layer in one group and place it at coordinate (0,0) as the demo shows, for I have not test it with artboard.
##Quick start##
I'm strongly suggest you watch this video. blade demo
or you can simply:
- Clone or download the repo.
- Place everything in
dist
folder into your sketch plugin folder.See where are plugin located? - Group all your layer in one group( artboard are not supported)and run blade.
- Blade will generate a new folder just in the same folder which you put your sketch file in.
##Amazing features##
I uploaded a demo sketch file and the generated HTML files which shows some magic. Have a quick look here:
###1. My sketch file:
You may notice the special layer names such as [btn]
or input[text]
. The [***]
is what I called directive
, similar to AngularJS's directive. The directive will tell blade what kind to dom element should be generate or this layer. And some powerful directives may generate scripts to make element interactive.
###2. The Generated HTML:
As it shows, blade generate a input element for the layer which name is input[text]
and a button for [btn]
.
###3. What does [case]
do?:
Press shift
down on the web page, then you will see the green border and two tabs, each one was generated for the layer which has directive [case]
. Click the tab(don't release the shift
before click) then you can change which should show as below:
##What's next?##
build-in directives:
- case
- btn
- center
- width
- height
- ignore
- a
- checkbox
- hover
- alert
- password
- select
- textarea
- closeable
I will continue write magic tags for blade, and trying to integrate AngularJS to help build better prototype。
##How to contribute?##
