gulp-ejs

ejs plugin for gulp

Usage

First, install gulp-ejs as a development dependency:

npm install --save-dev gulp-ejs

Then, add it to your gulpfile.js:

var ejs = require("gulp-ejs");

gulp.src("./templates/*.ejs")
	.pipe(ejs({
		msg: "Hello Gulp!"
	}))
	.pipe(gulp.dest("./dist"));

If you want to use gulp-ejs in a watch/livereload task, you may want to avoid gulp exiting on error when, for instance, a partial file is ENOENT. Here's an example on how to make it work:

var ejs = require('gulp-ejs');
var gutil = require('gulp-util');

gulp.src('./templates/*.ejs')
	.pipe(ejs({
		msg: 'Hello Gulp!'
	}).on('error', gutil.log))
	.pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'));

This will make gulp log the error and continue normal execution.
