Native express.js support

[noel-schenk]

Just took a quick look at how to implement twing into express.js

https://github.com/tj/consolidate.js/blob/master/lib/consolidate.js

and

adding twing (and linking) to the following page so more people start using it.
https://github.com/expressjs/expressjs.com/blob/gh-pages/en/resources/template-engines.md

/**
 * Twing support.
 */

exports.twing = fromStringRenderer('twing');

/**
 * Twing string support.
 */

exports.twing.render = function(str, options, cb) {
  return promisify(cb, function(cb) {
    var engine = requires.twing || (requires.twing = require('twing'));
    try {
        let tmpl = new engine.TwingEnvironment(new engine.TwingLoaderArray({
            'tmp': str,
        })).render('tmp', options);
        cb(null, tmpl);
    } catch (err) {
      cb(err);
    }
  });
};

I have to get some sleep. Maybe you can take a glimpse @ericmorand or I will try it tomorrow again.

Would be amazing if you can take care of that - especially have Twing referenced on expressjs page. I'm not using express at all so I'm very appropriate to look at it.

[ericmorand]

Actually, I proposed the link to Twing there:

expressjs/expressjs.com#1068

[DerekRoth]

Yep also interested. I’ll be using express and twing in an upcoming project.

[noel-schenk]

Testing it rn. Will let you know once it's published.

tj/consolidate.js#327
Pull request is done. Have to wait for it to merge into the master. Then I can add it to the readme's.

[noel-schenk]

@ericmorand any idea how we can keep this dependency (package.json) up to date?

Allows any packages from and up version 2.3.5
tj/consolidate.js@032cce1
Have to keep an eye on this.

[ericmorand]

Isn't 2.3.5 enough? Is there a difference between this and >=2.3.5?

Anyway, thanks for your commitment on this. Couldn't have done it myself.

[noel-schenk]

It allows all version newer than 2.3.5 and doesent require the exact version 2.3.5 otherwise this has to be updated all the time
