ERB template rendering made easy.

Kerb

ERB rendering can be a like driving over a rocky road. This library aims to solve this problem by offering an easy interface to render ERB from a string, from a file or towards a file. Get off the road and onto the kerb!

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'kerb'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install kerb

Usage

Render a string

erb = 'my <%= @foo %> <%= @bar %>'
vars = {
  foo: 'lovely',
  bar: 'garden'
}

Kerb.render(erb, vars) #=> "my lovely garden"

Render to a file

erb = 'my <%= @foo %> <%= @bar %>'
vars = {
  foo: 'lovely',
  bar: 'garden'
}
file = 'path_to_file'

Kerb.render_to_file(erb, vars, file)

File.read(file) #=> "my lovely garden"
