Compile dust template with line breaks

Compiling a such template with dustc:

$ cat <<EOF | ./node_modules/.bin/dustc -
<p>Hi there!</p>
<p>I'm a {! dust !} template.</p>
EOF

outputs:

(function(){dust.register("-",body_0);function body_0(chk,ctx){return chk.write("<p>Hi there!</p><p>I'm a  template.</p>");}return body_0;})();

but without \n between lines, eg: "<p>Hi there!</p>\n<p>I'm a template.</p>"

Is there any way to change this? Thank you

You can disable whitespace compression with

dust.optimizers.format = function(ctx, node) { return node };

Precompiling with gulp-dust, there's a preserveWhitespace option that does just that:

var compile=require('gulp-dust');

// ...
gulp.src('templates/**/*.dust')
    .pipe(compile({ preserveWhitespace: true }))
    // ...

You can use {~n} to create line breaks in your Dust templates. It's is especially useful within <pre> tags.
