Escape double braces {{ … }} in Mustache template. (templating a template in NodeJS)

Question

I\'m trying to template a template, like below:

{{{
{
  \"name\" : \"{{name}}\",
  \"description\" : \"{{description}}\"
}
}}}

{{{debug this}}}

Answer 1

You can switch delimiters to something that won't conflict with the triple mustaches, like erb-style tags:

{{=<% %>=}}
{{{
{
  "name": "<% name %>",
  "description": "<% description %>"
}
}}}
{{{debug this}}}
<%={{ }}=%>

Note that you can do this as many times as you like throughout your template. Any time you run into something that conflicts, pick a new set of delimiters :)
