Will this only work with the phantom-pdf or html recipes? I was trying to get it to work with the xlsx recipe but I have not had much luck

I don't think this works with jsreport, at least not with jsreport-core. If you follow the example on the jsreport-core website you can't really drop this in place as an engine. You just get the {"name": ... "main":...} object back. Can't really initialize it like other modules and tell jsreport to .use() it.

@bjrmatos Como estas ?
Gracias por el engine!
Me costo un poco encontrar la vuelta para hacer una instalación asique una vez que logre hacerlo hice un mini guía que puede servir a otros .
Te lo pongo acá por si querés incluir en el readme

To install Jade / Pug (or any other template engine) with jsreport you con follow these steps:

1. First off all, create a local folder that will hold the server, i.e. (~/myTools/jsreport)
2. Go to that directory. (cd ~/myTools/jsreport)
3. yarn global add jsreport-cli (you can also use npm install -g jsreport-cli)
4. Execute the command: jsreport init (this will create folder structure)
5. Add jade or ejs or the template engine package to folder with these command: yarn add jsreport-jade
   start the server running jsreport start

Can not figure out how I can include css file from assets to the template.
Tried with

doctype html
html(lang="en")
  style 
    !{{#asset styles.css @encoding=utf8}}
  head
  body

And with

doctype html
html(lang="en")
  style 
    | {#asset styles.css @encoding=utf8}
  head
  body

How is it supposed to do this?

I have this code in NodeJS.

jsreport.render({
   template: {
		content: 'h1 Hello #{templateHelpers.foo()}',
		helpers: { foo: () => { return 'world' } },
		engine: 'pug',
		recipe: 'chrome-pdf'
	},
	data: {
					},
}).then((out) => {
	out.stream.pipe(res);
}).catch((e) => {
	res.end(e.message);
});

I tried various combinations and could not get visibility of the helper method 'foo'. Am I missing something?
