For a given Jade/Pug template I would like to get a list of all variables which occur within the template.
My motivation is as follows: In my software, different templates are used to generate some HTML snippets. Based on a given context (i.e. values for certain variables are given), I would like to suggest only those templates, where all variables within the template can be assigned.
Example: For template myTemplate
like this:
html
head
title= myTitle
body
h1 #{value.headline}
p #{paragraph.text}
I would like to get some output like this:
var variableNames = extractVariableNamesFromTemplate('myTemplate');
// variableNames = [ 'myTitle', 'value.headline', 'paragraph.text' ]
Is there something available ready-to-use? Preferably a solution which would take into account all language-specific features such as includes, extends, etc.
