Unknown block tag error with gulp-nunjucks-render and nunjucks-markdown

[matthewblewitt]

Hi

I'm getting this error when using gulp-nunjucks-render:

events.js:160
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^
Template render error: (unknown path) [Line 1, Column 2]

My Gulp files is as follows:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var nunjucksRender = require('gulp-nunjucks-render');
var markdown = require('nunjucks-markdown');
var marked = require('marked');

marked.setOptions({
    smartypants: false
});

gulp.task('default', function () {
    var env = nunjucksRender.nunjucks.configure(['templates']);
    markdown.register(env, marked);

    return gulp.src('templates/*.html')
        .pipe(nunjucksRender())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have the same error.

My implementation was wrong! Here's a working example with nunjucks-markdown.

var gulp = require('gulp');
var nunjucksRender = require('gulp-nunjucks-render');
var markdown = require('nunjucks-markdown');
var marked = require('marked');

var manageEnvironment = function(env) {
    markdown.register(env, marked);
};

gulp.task('default', function () {
    return gulp.src('templates/*.html')
        .pipe(nunjucksRender({
            path: ['templates'], // String or Array
            manageEnv: manageEnvironment
         }))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

Thanks! Should I update the documentation to make it more clear?

That would be great, 'gulp-nunjucks-render' seems pretty popular and it would be nice to have an example I guess. Cheers
