Loading external libraries in scripts using docxtemplater recipe



  • Hi,

    I have been using chrome-pdf and html-to-xlsx recipes with success, each template uses moment.js. In each template have just loaded moment.js in <script> tags in the <head> section of the template. This has worked well to make the moment.js library available to the template and the functions that are called in the template.

    Now I am using docxtemplater, which has a blank template. I need to use a script to manipulate the data. What is the best way to make the moment.js library available within this script?

    Cheers.



  • You can do something like this

    const moment = require('moment')
    function beforeRender(req, res) {
      req.data.modification = moment().format()
    }
    


  • Great, thanks. That was easy.

    Cheers.
