\n\n## ES6 template engine interface\n\n[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@dadi/web-es6-templates)\n[](https://github.com/dadi/web-es6-templates)\n[](https://travis-ci.org/dadi/web-es6-templates)\n[](http://standardjs.com/)\n[](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release)\n\nThis module allows native [ES6 template literals](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Template_literals) to be used with [DADI Web](https://github.com/dadi/web).\n\n## Installation\n\n- Add this module as a dependency:\n\n ```\n npm install @dadi/web-es6-templates --save\n ```\n\n- Include it in the `engines` array passed to Web:\n\n ```js\n require('@dadi/web')({\n engines: [\n require('@dadi/web-es6-templates')\n ]\n })\n ```\n\n## Usage\n\n### Helpers\n\nThe base directory for absolute paths is the `utils/helpers` directory.\n\nHelpers are `required()` functions that can be embeded into templates to keep your code DRY. Take this example which could live in your `helpers` folder as `slugify.js`.\n\n```javascript\nvar s = require('underscore.string/slugify')\n\nmodule.exports = slugify = (chunk) => {\n return s(chunk)\n}\n```\n\nThis function would be used in a template file like so:\n\n```javascript\n${slugify('The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog')}\n```\n\nOutput:\n\n```\nthe-quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog\n```\n\n### Includes\n\nThe base directory for absolute paths is the `pages/` directory. Take the following directory tree.\n\n```\npages/\n|_ partials/\n|_ |_ header.js\n|_ |_ footer.js\n|_ index.js\n|_ index.json\n```\n\nTo include the partials from `index.js`, you can use an underscore to indicate a sub-folder:\n\n```js\n${partials_header}\n\nThis page lives at ${host}.
