Rivets.js
=========

[](#rivetsjs)

Rivets.js is a lightweight data binding and templating system that facilitates building data-driven views. It is agnostic about every aspect of a front-end MV(C|VM|P) stack, making it easy to introduce it into your current workflow or to use it as part of your own custom front-end stack comprised of other libraries.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```

  { auction.product.name }
  Current bid: { auction.currentBid | money }

    Hurry up! There is { auction.timeLeft | time } left.

```

```
rivets.bind($('#auction'), {auction: auction})
```

Getting Started and Documentation
---------------------------------

[](#getting-started-and-documentation)

Documentation is available on the [homepage](http://rivetsjs.com). Learn by reading the [Guide](http://rivetsjs.com/docs/guide/) and refer to the [Binder Reference](http://rivetsjs.com/docs/reference/) to see what binders are available to you out-of-the-box.

Building and Testing
--------------------

[](#building-and-testing)

First install any development dependencies.

```
$ npm install

```

#### Building

[](#building)

Rivets.js uses [gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) as it's build tool. Run the following task to compile + minify the source into `dist/`.

```
$ gulp build

```

#### Testing

[](#testing)

Rivets.js uses [mocha](http://visionmedia.github.io/mocha/) as it's testing framework, alongside [should](https://github.com/visionmedia/should.js/) for expectations and [sinon](http://sinonjs.org/) for spies, stubs and mocks. Run the following to run the full test suite.

```
$ npm test

```

#### Bug Reporting

[](#bug-reporting)

1. Ensure the bug can be reproduced on the latest master.
2. Open an issue on GitHub and include an isolated [JSFiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/) demonstration of the bug. The more information you provide, the easier it will be to validate and fix.

#### Pull Requests

[](#pull-requests)

1. Fork the repository and create a topic branch.
2. Make sure not to commit any changes under `dist/` as they will surely cause conflicts for others later. Files under `dist/` are only committed when a new build is released.
3. Include tests that cover any changes or additions that you've made.
4. Push your topic branch to your fork and submit a pull request. Include details about the changes as well as a reference to related issue(s).
