[users at bb.net] Passing parameters to plugins via master.cfg

[Gabriel Nagy]

Hi Pierre,

Thanks for the advice and the quick answer. I managed to partly implement
what you mentioned. Now my dashboard plugin generates as many pages as I
tell it to in the master.cfg file. However, I don't seem to get how to
properly name the templates. In the old dashboard I had one
dashboard.tpl.jade file. Do I need multiple template files now? My current
state points to this:

templateUrl: "dashboards/#{project}/index.html"

And my src/module folder structure is this:

.
├── dashboard.route.coffee
├── dashboard.tpl.jade
├── main.module.coffee
└── main.module.spec.coffee

Sorry for the seemingly dumb question, but this project has actually been
my starting point for learning Angular and I haven't yet managed to get a
grip of it :)

Thanks,
Gabe
