how to send data from service to template engine ( pug, handlebars etc.. )

[smatioli]

Hi, after a lot of guessing, I discovered that this way is possible to send data to handlebars and pug:

 this.pdfService.toStream('template', {
      locals: {
        title: 'My title',
      },
    });

doctype html
html(lang="en")
  head
    title= title
    script(type='text/javascript').
  body
    h1 #{locals.title} - node template engine 
    #container.col
      if youAreUsingPug
        p You are amazing
      else
        p Get on it!
      p.
        Pug is a terse and simple templating language with a
        strong focus on performance and powerful features.

try these sample template to get the title passed as variable in your pdf
