Plugin enabling ASPAX to handle CoffeeScript files.

What's this?

A plugin that enables ASPAX to handle CoffeeScript files.

Installation

Type this in the folder where you're running ASPAX:

npm install aspax-coffee-handler

If you're running ASPAX in a Node.js application root folder, consider using the --save-dev option to avoid deploying this plugin to your production environment:

npm install aspax-coffee-handler --save-dev

Usage

Simply add .coffee source files in aspax.yml:

app.js:
  - lib.js
  - script-1.coffee|bare
  - script-2.coffee

Available flags

• bare: compile without the top-level function safety wrapper - see more here.

  Basically, this:

    $ -> console.log 'hi!'
  

  ...compiles to this with the bare flag:

    $(function() {
      return console.log("hi!");
    });
  

  ...and to this without the flag:

    (function() {
      $(function() {
        return console.log("hi!");
      });
    }).call(this);
