var pkg = require('./package.json');
exports.default = function (spec) {
spec.with(['src/manifest.appcache', 'src/humans.txt']).each(function (file) {

exports.default = function (spec) {
spec.with('src/index.html').one(function (file) {
spec.rule(file, 'build/index.html', replace({
patterns: [
{
match: 'timestamp',
replacement: Date.now()
}
]
}));
});
};
fez(module);
```
### Include file
File `src/index.html`:
```html
@@include
```
fez.js:
```javascript
var fs = require('fs');
var fez = require('fez');
var replace = require('fez-replace');
exports.default = function (spec) {
spec.with('src/index.html').one(function (file) {
spec.rule(file, 'build/index.html', replace({
patterns: [
{
match: 'include',
replacement: fs.readFileSync('./includes/content.html', 'utf8')
}
]
}));
});
};
fez(module);
```
### Regular expression
File `src/username.txt`:
```
John Smith
```
fez.js:
```javascript
var fez = require('fez');
var replace = require('fez-replace');
exports.default = function (spec) {
spec.with('src/username.txt').one(function (file) {
spec.rule(file, 'build/username.html', replace({
patterns: [
{
match: /(\w+)\s(\w+)/,
replacement: '$2, $1' // Replaces "John Smith" with "Smith, John"
}
]
}));
});
};
fez(module);
```
### Lookup for `foo` instead of `@@foo`
fez.js:
```javascript
var fez = require('fez');
var replace = require('fez-replace');
exports.default = function (spec) {
spec.with('src/foo.txt').one(function (file) {
spec.rule(file, 'build/foo.txt', replace({
patterns: [
{
match: /foo/g, // Explicitly using a regexp
replacement: 'bar'
}
]
}));
spec.rule(file, 'build/foo.txt', replace({
patterns: [
{
match: 'foo',
replacement: 'bar'
}
],
usePrefix: false // Using the option provided
}));
spec.rule(file, 'build/foo.txt', replace({
patterns: [
{
match: 'foo',
replacement: 'bar'
}
],
prefix: '' // Removing the prefix manually
}));
});
};
fez(module);
```
