# HTML Plugin
## Description
Allows importing of `HTML` files as a string in your code.
## Usage
### Setup
Import from FuseBox
```js
const {HTMLPlugin} = require("fuse-box");
```
Inject into a chain
```js
fuse.plugin(
HTMLPlugin()
)
```
Or add it to the main config plugins list to make it available across bundles
```js
FuseBox.init({
plugins : [
HTMLPlugin()
]
});
```
### Require file in your code
With `useDefault : false`
```js
import * as tpl from "./views/file.html"
```
With `useDefault : true`
```js
import tpl from "./views/file.html"
```
## Options
### useDefault
`useDefault` is enable by default. So a transpiled code would look like:
```js
module.exports.default = "
eh"
```
You can override it and drop back to `module.exports` by switching to `useDefault : false`
```js
HTMLPlugin({ useDefault : false})
```
Which will result in:
```js
module.exports = "
eh"
```
## Notes:
If you use the normal `ES6` import syntax like `import tpl from "./views/file.html"`, then there is no need for bundling your `HTML` files.
but if you intend to use `FuseBox` Lazy Load feature like `FuseBox.import("./views/file.html")` then you need to bundle them. see below example:
```js
const clientBundle = fuse.bundle("client/app")
.watch()
.hmr()
.instructions(" > client/app.ts **/*.+(html|css)")
```
## Test
To run tests
```
node test --file=HTMLPlugin.test.ts
```
