Hi, I am getting an error on a fresh install, like this:

/Users/konsumer/Desktop/blog/blog.jetboystudio.com/node_modules/wintersmith-handlebars/wintersmith-handlebars.coffee:1
rts, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { handlebars = require 'handlebar
                                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^

  error Error loading plugin 'wintersmith-handlebars': Unexpected string

I am using it like this:

wintersmith new -T basic blog/
cd blog
wintersmith plugin install handlebars
((go make templates/index.html, and set index.md to use it))
wintersmith preview

My templates/index.html looks like this:

<html>
<head>
    <title>{{title}}</title>
</head>
<body>
    <header>
        <h1><a href="/">{{title}}</a></h1>
    </header>
    <section>
        <h2>{{page.title}}</h2>
        <article>{{page.html}}</article>
    </section>
</body>
</html>

and contents/index.md looks like this:


---
title: Wintersmith
template: index.html

---

blog project-template (the default) seems to work ok.

Amusingly, the problem can disappear if you put wintersmith-less in front of wintersmith-handlebars

That is amusing! :)

+1 also getting this

this module shouldnt assume the parent is using coffeescript, it should depend on coffeescript itself

@ianstormtaylor skimming this issue it seems like it could be fixed by compiling to .js, is that correct? If so I'll fix it asap.

hmm not sure, haven't used coffeescript with node enough to say 100%. but i stopped using wintersmith :///

@ianstormtaylor Ok, I'll take a look soon. Re: wintersmith... it's awfully hard to use, but I'm unaware of any alternative.

@ianstormtaylor

got one coming soon for you ;)

@ianstormtaylor I am excited. 👍

https://www.npmjs.org/search?q=metalsmith if you wanna sneak peak. still got a few more things to do before launching to everyone (namely actual docs, and a landing page). everything is a plugin so even markdown conversion and templating isn't baked in. basically the steps are just:

  1. read files
  2. run thru middleware stack
  3. write files

so any transforms can be done, so its super flexible — using it for our blog/academy already. migrating our docs over to it now as well

@ianstormtaylor looks cool, can't wait to try it.

Looks cool, but I can't seem to find any of it on github.

@konsumer probably a private repo in the segmentio organization 😇

@konsumer

@JacksonGariety ah, yeah, just noticed npm links are all to inaccessible segmentio repos.

@ianstormtaylor

hopefully will be open sourced next couple weeks
