So I am delighted that the BVA has come out with its headline-grabbing advice – at last we can talk about the subject a bit more openly (although not openly enough for me to put my name to this column). You would be hard-pushed to find a general practitioner who likes the concept of a brachycephalic dog but you would be equally hard-pushed to find one being openly critical of them because this would put their livelihood on the line. Vets in general practice simply cannot afford to be honest and to speak out. If I stood up and told the truth about these breeds I would immediately alienate them and they would up sticks and move to the neighbouring practice where the vet was not as outspoken. In my practice alone we have a number of pug, shih tzu and bulldog breeders and dozens of owners with squashed-nosed pets. In light of all this, the question has to be – why do vets not speak out more often? And therein lies the rub the vast majority of us work in general practice and our income is based on mending people’s animals and getting paid for it, and, like it or not, a large number of those clients have brachycephalic dogs. ‘Breathing aside, most of these animals also have other genetic abnormalities that result in illness, from back problems to eye issues.’ Photograph: Alamy But if you had asked any practising vet in the past few years what they thought of brachycephalics they would have been as critical of these breeds as I am. Pug is compiled to HTML and processed as described in the HTML docs. pug file is detected, it will be installed into your project automatically. Parcel supports Pug automatically using the parcel/transformer-pug plugin. This week, the British Veterinary Association’s (BVA) recommendation to think twice before buying one of these dogs hit the headlines and suddenly people are talking about the issue. Pug is a templating language that compiles to HTML. Breathing aside, most of these animals also have other genetic abnormalities that result in illness, from back problems to eye issues.

I have seen it myself: a bulldog comes in panting away with blue-tinged gums (normal for the breed), I anaesthetise it and put the tube in and as if by magic it pinks up and breathes normally – presumably its body is overjoyed to actually be receiving enough oxygen for once. The only time these dogs are not in some degree of respiratory distress is when you have them intubated under anaesthetic. Call that resultant function with your data, and voil, it will return a string of HTML rendered with your data.
#PUG LANGUAGE REFERENCE CODE#
pug.compile () will compile the Pug source code into a JavaScript function that takes a data object (called locals ) as an argument.
#PUG LANGUAGE REFERENCE INSTALL#
Every structure that should make up the nose has been squashed flat. Pug is available via npm: npm install pug Overview The general rendering process of Pug is simple. “Developing template engines for Express”.ĭocumentation translations provided by StrongLoop/IBM:įrench, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Russian, Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Portuguese.Ĭommunity translation available for: Slovak, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Turkish and Thai.And there you have it, brachycephalic dogs (which include pugs, bulldogs, French bulldogs and shih tzus) are an anatomical disaster. To learn more about how template engines work in Express, see: The view is still re-rendered with every request even when the cache is on. Note: The view engine cache does not cache the contents of the template’s output, only the underlying template itself. When you make a request to the home page, the index.pug file will be rendered as HTML. You must specify the extension of the view file. Then create a route to render the index.pug file. app.set('view engine', 'pug')Ĭreate a Pug template file named index.pug in the views directory, with the following content: html Library follows this convention by mapping all of the popular Node.js template engines, and therefore works seamlessly within Express.Īfter the view engine is set, you don’t have to specify the engine or load the template engine module in your app Įxpress loads the module internally, as shown below (for the above example). Jade blocks can provide default content if desired, however optional as shown below by block scripts, block content, and block foot. A block is simply a block of Jade that may be replaced within a child template. Some template engines do not follow this convention. Jade supports template inheritance via the block and extends keywords. Which is called by the res.render() function to render the template code. Express-compliant template engines such as Jade and Pug export a function named _express(filePath, options, callback),
