Handlebars views/partials does not appear to be set up by default in the express generation. Here is an example of what I implemented to utilize partials via handlebars:
/* app.js */
// Variable defintions var fs = require('fs'); var hbs = require('handlebars'); var partials = "./views/partials/";
// Register partials fs.readdirSync(partials).forEach(function (file) { var source = fs.readFileSync(partials + file, "utf8"), partial = /(.+).html/.exec(file).pop();
hbs.registerPartial(partial, source); });
/* views / index.html */
{{> partialTest}}
/* views / partials / partialTest.html */
