Whitespace Control

Squirrelly allows you to control the whitespace before or after tags.

note

Squirrelly borrows its whitespace control syntax from EJS

Basic Syntax

Opening delimiters can be followed with - or _, and closing delimiters can be prefixed with - or _

_ at the beginning of a tag will trim all whitespace before it, and _ at the end of a tag will trim all whitespace after it.

- at the beginning of a tag will trim 1 character of whitespace before it, and - at the end of a tag will trim 1 character of whitespace after it.

Examples

Hi

{{- it.myname }}

{{_ ~if (it.num) _}}

{{/if}}

Configuration

By default, Squirrelly removes the first whitespace character after each tag. This can be configured
