Prebyte Passthrough

Invoke Prebyte directly through Tempify.

When to use

  • Prebyte features without Tempify template context
  • Debugging .pbt files
  • Batch rendering of individual files

Not for normal template rendering - use tempify <template-id> [target] for that.

Commands

tempify process -h
tempify -p -h
tempify process render template.pbt out.txt

All arguments after process / -p are passed to the embedded Prebyte runner.

Tempify vs. Prebyte

Tempify Prebyte (-p)
Template package Yes No
questions.lua Yes No
Hooks Yes No
Lock/reapply Yes No
Single .pbt Via template Direct
