Maizzle

Config Variables and Functions

Since Maizzle is fully configured in JavaScript, you can programatically set config options and make data available to your Templates.

Variables

Here's a very basic example of using variables in config options:

// config.js

// Define additional paths for PurgeCSS to scan
let extraPurgePaths = [
  './src/2019/clients/**/*.*',
  '../up/a/level/**/*.*'
]

module.exports = {
  purgeCSS: {
    content: [
      'src/layouts/**/*.*',
      'src/partials/**/*.*',
      'src/components/**/*.*',
      ...extraPurgePaths, // spread the array variable
    ],
    // ...
  },
}

Functions

When using a function, you need to make sure that:

  1. it returns something
  2. you invoke it
// config.js
const foo = function() {
  return 'manchu'
}

module.exports = {
  foo: foo(), // invoke function defined above
  bar: function() {
    // do stuff and return
  }(), // invoke function
}

The dynamic titles example uses a self-invoking function.
