nano-bigodon

nano-bigodon is a minimal implementation of the Bigodon templating engine on Express.js in under 50 lines of code. It allows you to execute Bigodon templates with a simple REST API.

Features

• Execute Bigodon templates through HTTP requests.
• Set execution time limits for template processing.
• Log helper function for debugging templates.

Usage

Using npm

To get started with nano-bigodon, clone the repository and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/gabriel-pinheiro/nano-bigodon.git
cd nano-bigodon
npm install

Then, whenever you want to start the server, run:

npm start

Using Docker

Alternatively, you can use Docker to run nano-bigodon:

docker run -p 8080:8080 gabrielctpinheiro/nano-bigodon

API

To execute a Bigodon template, send a POST request to /execute with a JSON containing the template and context:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/execute \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"template": "Hello, {{name}}!", "context": {"name": "World"}}'

The server will respond with the output of the template execution:

Hello, World!

Configuration

You can configure the server by setting the environment variables:

• PORT: The port that the server will listen to. Defaults to 8080.
• EXECUTION_LIMIT: The maximum time (in milliseconds) that the server will allow a template to execute. Defaults to 100.
