本文件是基於express 3.4.6 的
在我們的程式碼中,渲染模板大致是這樣寫的
exports.index = function(req, res){ res.render('index', { title: 'Express' }); };
這個req,res 函式其實是經過了中介軟體middleware.js 處理後的,我們在前面提到過。
req,res的原型分別為 app.request 和app.response
req.__proto__ = app.request;
res.__proto__ = app.response;
而 app.request 和app.response,本身也是具有app的屬性的。
//設定app 的request物件的原型為req,本身的屬性為connect物件
app.request = { __proto__: req, app: app };
//設定app的response物件原型為res ,本身的屬性為connect物件
app.response = { __proto__: res, app: app };
注意這裡的這個app屬性
開啟response.js 檔案,我們看看res.render方法
res.render = function(view, options, fn){ var self = this , options = options || {} , req = this.req , app = req.app; // support callback function as second arg if ('function' == typeof options) { fn = options, options = {}; } // merge res.locals options._locals = self.locals; // default callback to respond fn = fn || function(err, str){ if (err) return req.next(err); self.send(str); }; // render app.render(view, options, fn); };
可以看到:
, req = this.req
, app = req.app;
這裡的 req = this.req,其實是中介軟體 裡面的 res.req = req;
第二句直接將app帶進來了,最後我們執行了app.render方法,它呼叫了application.js 中得這個方法:
app.render = function(name, options, fn){ var opts = {} , cache = this.cache , engines = this.engines , view; // support callback function as second arg if ('function' == typeof options) { fn = options, options = {}; } // merge app.locals utils.merge(opts, this.locals); // merge options._locals if (options._locals) utils.merge(opts, options._locals); // merge options utils.merge(opts, options); // set .cache unless explicitly provided opts.cache = null == opts.cache ? this.enabled('view cache') : opts.cache; // primed cache if (opts.cache) view = cache[name]; // view if (!view) { view = new (this.get('view'))(name, { defaultEngine: this.get('view engine'), root: this.get('views'), engines: engines }); if (!view.path) { var err = new Error('Failed to lookup view "' + name + '"'); err.view = view; return fn(err); } // prime the cache if (opts.cache) cache[name] = view; } // render try { view.render(opts, fn); } catch (err) { fn(err); } };
可以看到它呼叫了檢視類:
view = new (this.get('view'))(name, { defaultEngine: this.get('view engine'), root: this.get('views'), engines: engines });
最後呼叫了檢視的render方法。 view.render(opts, fn);
檢視的這個方法是:
View.prototype.render = function(options, fn){ this.engine(this.path, options, fn); };
function View(name, options) { options = options || {}; this.name = name; this.root = options.root; var engines = options.engines; this.defaultEngine = options.defaultEngine; var ext = this.ext = extname(name); if (!ext && !this.defaultEngine) throw new Error('No default engine was specified and no extension was provided.'); if (!ext) name += (ext = this.ext = ('.' != this.defaultEngine[0] ? '.' : '') + this.defaultEngine); this.engine = engines[ext] || (engines[ext] = require(ext.slice(1)).__express); this.path = this.lookup(name); }
引擎require了一個方法
this.engine = engines[ext] || (engines[ext] = require(ext.slice(1)).__express);
後面就去呼叫具體的模板引擎了。
