Examples

Hello World Example

This example covers creating a squirrelly template that renders Hello World! and serving it from a fastify server. The completed example can be found in examples/hello-world

Install fastify and fastify-squirrelly

npm install fastify fastify-squirrelly

Create the Fastify server

// server.js
const fastify = require('fastify')({logger: true});

fastify.register(require('fastify-squirrelly'));

fastify.get('/', (req, reply) => {
  reply.sqrly('hello', {name: 'World'});
});


fastify.listen(3000, err => {
  if(err) throw err;
});

Create the Squirrelly template file

create a folder called templates in the same directory as the server file. Then create a file named hello.html in that folder.

.
+-- server.js
+-- templates
|   +-- hello.html

<!-- hello.html -->
<h1>Hello, {{name}}!</h1>

start the server!

node server.js

Open a browser and go to localhost:3000 and you should see Hello, World!.

Congrats! you just rendered your first template using fastify-squirrelly. Try passing a value other than 'World' and restart the server.
