Use Express app settings for `layoutsDir`, `partialsDir`, etc.? #19

Closed ericf closed 10 years ago

All the the configuration properties could be expressed as application settings via Express. Would it be a good idea to switch these to app settings?

Were you thinking of doing this with get() and set()?

app.set('layoutsDir', '/layouts/custom');

Yeah… something like that, but probably namespaced like "handlebars layouts dir" in case an app is using many view engines. Still not sure if it's a great idea yet.

No one was asked for this, so closing it…feel free to open if you feel strongly about wanting this feature.
