# exports 

## Description

Easy data exports to your client-side scripts for your express based app.

## Synopsis

```javascript

var express = require('express');
var exports = require('exports');

var app = express.createServer();

app.dynamicHelpers({
  include_exports: exports.helper('App') // App is the namespace.
});

exports.set('title', 'I am awesome.'); // Global export.

app.get('/', [exports.middleware], function(req, res) {
  res.exports.random = Math.random(); // Export per request.
  res.rend('index');
});

```

layout.jade:

```
!!!
html
  head
    != include_exports
  body!= body
```

Result:

```html
