Directory

While you are running Rin, It is watching directories under templates/, sass/, js/, images/. Put your project’s templates(ejs), scss, js, images files in it.

templates/, sass/, js/, images/ files will compile and output to build/.

rin/
┣┳ templates/
┃┣ sass/
┃┣ js/
┃┗ images/
┃
┗┳ build/
 ┗┳ index.html
  ┣ css/
  ┣ js/
  ┗ images/

Templates

Rin supports EJS template. When you edit and save .ejs files under templates/ directory, they will output as .html to build/ directory.

Template tags

site.json

Put variables which use for every pages.

Example:

{
  "siteName": "Example Site",
 "siteRootUrl": "http://example.com/",
 "ogImageUrl": "http://example.com/images/og-image.jpg",
 "fbAppId": "000000000",
 "twitterSite": "@sanographix",
 "googleAnalyticsId": "UA-00000000-1"
}

index.ejs

If you want to use variables for particular single page, put variables into <% var %> at each page.

Example:

<% var
pageTitle = "Toppage";
pageDescription = "Example site";
%>
<head>
	<title><%= pageTitle %> - <%= siteName %></title>
	<meta property="og:description" content="<%= pageDescription %>" />
</head>

Result

<head>
	<title>Toppage - Example Site</title>
	<meta property="og:description" content="Example site" />
</head>

Images

Rin optimizes gif, jpg, png, svg images automatically using gulp-imagemin. Each files will output to build/.

CSS

sass
┣ style.scss // It imports under /lib files
┗ lib

   ┣ _button.scss // Buttons
   ┣ _common.scss // Common components like `body` or `a` etc
   ┣ _grid.scss // Responsive grid system
   ┣ _normalize.scss // Normalize
