Public API

convert(html, stream, [options], [callback])

html must be a string.

stream is a "Writable Stream".

options is an optional hash. See next section for details.

callback is optional and passed (error) if something goes wrong.

Supported options:

• prefix prepends a string to the begining of each element functional call. (default: '')

For example, using the prefix @ would result in @body ->.

• selectors is a boolean to toggle emitting classes and ids as a first argument to element functions as a selector string (default: true).

For example, when true you get div '#id.cls1.cls2. When false you get div id: "id", class: "cls1 cls2"

• exports is a boolean or a string name. When truthy, wraps the output in a Node.js style function export. (default: false).

When true you get module.exports = ->. When a "foo" you get exports.foo = ->
