Load external page with Swig in NodeJS

I am trying to include the HTML generated in an external page in a NodeJS module, using Swig to generate the view. What I want to do is basically the same behaviour you get with the <c:import/> tag in JSTL.

I have tried this so far:

  • {{ include http://another.webpage }}
  • {{ include 'http://another.webpage' }}
  • {% include http://another.webpage %}
  • {% include 'http://another.webpage' %}

But none of them worked.

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you very much

You can't do that since the code of the tag include look at a file related to his current path. With the current version of Swig code, you can't do it.

You can find the code of this tag here.

But you could create your custom tag in Swig that load an HTTP resource.
