How does this not already exist?
This is really designed for projects using ES6 modules with Angular 1.x in HTML5 mode.
npm install --save samterrell/stringify-html-brunchI want this to work:
import {default as template} from "./template";
angular.module('supercool', ['ngRoute'])
.config(function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.when('/', {
template: template
});
});Relative resolution makes refactoring and renaming easy. Just rename that directory, and you only have to update paths to that module, not any of the paths in the module.
Missing templates are compile errors this way. Compare that to what happens when you do an HTML5 routing setup where you have to serve /index.html for pretty much all 404's (so direct links work). If you mistype the url, or write a route or directive before the template, you have about 10s to kill the browser tab before it consumes all available memory recursively loading your app.
It's really just one line of actual code to export a
module that returns a file's contents as a string. I
suppose I could target this specifically at angular and
try to compile things and return the URL instead of the
full template, thus getting the previous benefits, but I
would rather waste a few milliseconds for the simplicity.
There isn't a single branch. The code complexity is so
small, automating the tests is pointless.
